Biography

Tiffany received her bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences from York College of Pennsylvania in 2022. She then moved to Bethesda, MD during her gap years to work at the National Institutes of Health in the lab of Dr. Thomas Bugge at the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, where she studied how persistent fibrin deposition in plasminogen-deficient mice disrupts hematopoietic regeneration after myelosuppression. She is now a medical student at the Medical College of Wisconsin. She joined the lab of Dr. Ze Zheng in July 2025, where she is expanding her interests by investigating how lipoproteins – particularly lipoprotein(a) – modulate fibrinolysis.
