BC Graduate Yale-Bound
Blake Acquarulo, Class of 2012, is graduating in May from Boston College with a Bachelor of Science in biology and a minor in medical humanities, health, and culture. For Blake, who has always loved science, medicine, and helping others, her educational pursuits follow in line with her passions. “I have also developed a strong interest for disease study and research,” she said. “My recent work this past summer at Yale Medical School in the department of Digestive Diseases has helped me further understand this interconnectedness between biology, medicine, and public health. From receiving grants from the National Institute of Health (NIH) to breeding mice as a model organism for our research, my internship at Yale studying cystic fibrosis, an inherited disease of the mucus and sweat glands, has further shown me how much public health and biology overlap and work together. I am so excited to be continuing my academic career at Yale University in the fall where I will be pursing a Masters in Public Health with a concentration in Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases.”
