Soumya Yadav

Undergraduate Mentor

Hi there! I’m majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Chemistry and pursuing a certificate in the Conceptual Foundations of Medicine. I am currently involved in research in Endocrinology and Metabolism at the School of Medicine to study fasting metabolisms, anorexia, and other endocrine syndromes in women. I was previously involved in Neurobiology research at the School of Medicine on the pathobiology of Alzheimer’s disease. Additionally, I am involved in different activities on campus such as volunteering at UPMC Presbyterian, volunteering at UPMC Hospice, and serving as a civic engagement fellow in the Office of PittServes. In my free time, I really enjoy playing volleyball, cooking, and reading! Please reach out to me about anything at all, I would love to talk about getting involved on campus, research, classes, or just life!
