Shefin George (Principal Investigator)
Shefin was trained in biomedical engineering at Model Engineering College, Cochin, India and completed a master's degree in biomedical engineering at La Trobe, University, Australia. She entered the field of auditory neuroscience as a graduate student at the Bionics Institute and University of Melbourne, Australia. Interest in the components of hearing and deafness led her to do postdoctoral position with Dr. Anthony Ricci at Stanford University. When she is not indoor doing research, she enjoys being in the nature doing outdoor activities with her family. She also enjoys gardening, baking and cooking.Yvonne Guan (Lab Technician)
Yvonne received her BS in Chemistry from UW, where she conducted research in the lab of Dr. Joshua Vaughan on super-resolution/volumetric microscopy; her main project explored the non-random spatial organization of spermatogenesis. She's excited to participate in research on how neurons process sensory information! Outside of lab, Yvonne draws on her iPad, writes fiction she won't let anyone read, and watches anime. On a more energetic day, she might be found birdwatching.
