Background

About Lara Larson

I am a bioengineering graduate student at the University of Maryland, where I am engaged in researching Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). My work is fueled by my passion for advancing our understanding of SLE and advocating for those affected by the disease. I continuously seek opportunities for patient outreach and am committed to making a meaningful impact in the field. I am actively involved in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts, seeking to create a more inclusive and equitable scientific community. In addition to my research and advocacy efforts, I enjoy collaborating with colleagues, troubleshooting complex problems, and mentoring aspiring scientists and engineers.
