Deveena Banerjee

Graduate Student, Young Lab, Molecular Physiology & Biophysics


I am originally from Sacramento, CA, and attended Bates College in Lewiston, Maine, where I graduated with a BS in Mathematics and did research in algebra. I am now a graduate student in Jamey Young’s lab, which studies metabolic fluxes. My current research projects focus on modeling whole body mammalian metabolic fluxes to further understand metabolic dysregulation in different tissues in response to metabolic syndrome, as well as the effects of drugs on metabolic pathways. In my free time, I enjoy baking and exploring Nashville.
