Bio: Hi! I’m Devon – I’m a fourth-year doubling in Bioengineering and EECS, planning to pursue an MD/PhD and a career in neurosurgery. I’ve spent over six years working in the Kleen Lab at UCSF, where I use computers and machine learning to understand the brain and epilepsy. I also love writing music and composing orchestral scores for film. I’m excited to be part of the peer advising team – please feel free to reach out with any questions, or just to chat about research, medicine, music, or life at Berkeley!
