We're excited to introduce the newest members of the Indiana MSTP! Over the coming weeks, we'll be spotlighting our incoming MS1 students and sharing a little about the future physician-scientists joining our community. First up: Kelvin!

👋 Hey everyone! My name is Kelvin, and I’m originally from Chengdu, China, but moved to the United States when I was in sixth grade and am currently based in Jacksonville, Florida. Outside of medicine and research, I love swimming and going on cruises with my family! In fact, it was during our family's 2025 Christmas cruise that I played Monopoly for the first time and discovered how much I love the game!

🎨 One of my longest-running hobbies has been a daily art sketch project that I started in March 2020, where I challenge myself to create at least one sketch every day. I'm excited to meet everyone and look forward to getting to know the MSTP community over the next several years! 😊

🎉 Congratulations to Emily Yang, MSTP GS3, on receiving an NIH National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) F31 Fellowship for her project, “Investigating the Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 in the TDP-43 Proteinopathies of ALS and FTLD.” This prestigious award recognizes Emily's outstanding research and dedication to advancing our understanding of neurodegenerative disease. We look forward to seeing the impact of her work. 🔬👏
