Episode 78 - Gissell Sanchez

Gissell is a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate studying Pharmacology at the University of Michigan.   She is interested in the field of neuropharmacology, especially addiction research. Gissell is currently investigating opioid signaling pathways that increase the pain-relieving effects of opioids  such as morphine without increasing adverse side effects. Gissell is Mexican-American from California, and her identity has inspired her to be involved in community outreach with groups that support DEI in academia and minority advancement in science.   To keep up to date with WaMPS updates, you can follow @msuwamps on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, or visit our website https://www.wamps.org.
