Adam Xu

Boston, MA

I am a sophomore at Brown University studying Computational Biology.

This summer, I am interning at Eli Lilly as a Research & Development Intern in Boston. I'm working on precision AAV genetic therapies for neurodegenerative disease on the Vector Engineering & Delivery team.

I am an undergraduate research assistant in the Department of Neuroscience supervised by Alex Jaworski, where I study how spinal motor axons avoid inappropriate targets during neurodevelopment. I conduct clinical research in ophthalmology under Luis Vazquez at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.

I am also Managing Director of Brown Motion Pictures, a student organization at Brown that brings together student filmmakers to produce eight original short films a year.
