President and Outreach Chair: Nora Qatanani Heading link
My name is Nora Qatanani, and I’m in my final year of undergrad pursuing a Biomedical Engineering degree with a Neural concentration. I was introduced to EMBS through my work in Dr. Emailbeigi’s research lab, and I love how it increases exposure to medical devices and bioinformatics. EMBS is a great way to explore different innovations happening in industry and to foster a sense of community among students! I am very interested in the development and research regarding medical devices. I also enjoy reading and trying new things in my (very limited) free time. Feel free to reach out to me at nqatan2@uic.edu. I look forward to working with you all this year!

Treasurer and Journal Club Director: Shreenithi Palamuthy Heading link
My name is Shreenithi Palamuthy, and I’m currently a sophomore majoring in biomedical engineering. This is my first year on the EMBS board as Treasurer and Journal Club Lead. I joined EMBS because I am interested in the applications that engineering can have in biology. Outside of EMBS, I am also involved in undergraduate research. If you have any questions about EMBS or Journal Club please feel free to reach out to me!

Secretary, Marketing Director, and Webmaster: Alannah Rodrigues Heading link
Hi! My name is Alannah Rodrigues and I am a junior in Biomedical Engineering concentrating in Bioinformatics and a CS and Math minor and on the pre-medical track. I am interested in using bioinformatics to understand systems biology and using it to help diagnose earlier and treat patients with specificity. I have been a part of EMBS for two years and really enjoy the workshops and the exposure the club has given me to new opportunities and possibilities. In my spare time, I like to read, watch reruns, and run. I look forward to meeting you all and reach out with any questions!
