Madeline Morrisson

Whitfield lab

Madeline graduated from University of New Haven in 2019, with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry. During her undergraduate career, she ran cross country, indoor and outdoor track, and interned in the lab of Dr. Yang Yang-Hartwich at Yale School of Medicine. Her research there focused on the molecular impact of exercise on initiation and progression of ovarian cancer. At Dartmouth, she is a part of Dr. Mike Whitfield's lab, studying systemic sclerosis. Madeline is specifically interested in further characterizing mouse models of systemic sclerosis, using techniques such as single-cell RNA sequencing. Outside of the lab, she enjoys reading, running, hiking, skiing, hanging out with her cat, and advocating for students as a member of the Graduate Student Council.
