Emily Olszewski (Graduate Student) is a graduate student in the Department of Bioengineering in the Stevens and Davis labs. Emily received her B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where she studied laryngeal acoustics and aerodynamics and later began work on a cellular-based model of macular degeneration. Emily is currently interested in fibrotic remodeling of cardiac tissue and is working to build a model of scar development for testing immune cell-based therapies to regenerate myocardium after heart injuries, either post-myocardial infarction or post-surgical correction of congenital heart defects in newborns and children.
