#rutgers/clubs/CBN Hi Julia and Fharell,        My name is Stephanie Diaz, and I am currently a Senior in the Cell Biology and Neuroscience major, with minors in **Cognitive Science** and **Health and Society**. I’m really looking forward to meeting you both and getting to know you throughout the semester! I hope to see you at the **Mentor–Mentee Mixer on Thursday night.** It’ll be a great opportunity for us to connect in person. A little bit about my background: I’ve spent the past two years conducting research in the **Food and Nutritional Sciences Department**, and I’m now continuing my research journey under **Dr. Gary Aston-Jones and Dr. Alicia Zumbusch** at the **Brain Institute** on Busch Campus.         After our first meeting, I’ll share my weekly availability so we can find a good time for our mentoring sessions. I’m also planning to send a brief **Google form** where you can let me know what topics you’d like to discuss or any specific questions you have; that way, we can make the most of our time together. I’m excited to work with you both and help you navigate your time in the CBN program. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions before we meet! Best, **Stephanie Diaz** Cell Biology & Neuroscience, Class of 2026 Rutgers University, New Brunswick Cell-phone: 732-675-9234
