Ph.D. Candidate and NIH NRSA F31 Fellow
Carnegie Mellon University
Mariah Arral is a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). She is an NIH NRSA F31 Fellow and former NSF GRFP Fellow. Mariah is a researcher in Prof. Kathryn Whitehead’s group. Her work focuses on developing new materials for lipid nanoparticles and understanding the relationship between materials, delivery, and immunogenicity.
Mariah’s career goals include a post-doctoral position after her Ph.D. to expand her knowledge of drug delivery, biomaterials, and the immune system. She hopes to take the knowledge she gains from her Ph.D. and post-doctoral position to develop her own research program as a tenure-track professor.
