ImageAlexandra Stowe (second from left) was recognized as the NBRC Student of the Month for November. Alexandra, daughter of William and Elizabeth Stowe, was nominated and selected by the Science Department of the North Branford High School. She is a senior at North Branford High School. In addition to being a four year starter on the varsity soccer team, she has also been on the track and field team for two years. After becoming interested in biology in her sophomore year, she went to a woman engineering conference as a junior and decided that she would like to study biomedical engineernig in the future. With this is mind, Alexandra was given an opportunity this past summer to be a student assistant to a brilliant doctor at Yale Medical School. While in the laboratory, she gained incredible experience with new technologies and an understanding of lab procedures and common experiments.  Her time at Yale will be used as her Independent Performance Project which she will complete in January.
