Connie Shen

Connie is a Ph.D student in the Department of Microbiology & Immunology. Currently, she studies the dynamics of immune cell migration, specifically focusing on how dysregulation in cytoskeletal elements alter migrational behavior. On the side, she is examining how aging affects lymph node structure. When she's not camped out in the microscope room taking stunning images and movies of moving cells, you can probably find her eating her way through Montreal. She is also the newly elected Financial Affairs Officer of the Post-Graduate Students' Society of McGill University.
