Chelsea Duncan

Undergraduate Researcher

Hello! I am an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan pursuing a major in Biology, Health, and Society on the pre-medical track, with a minor in Public Policy.

I joined the Kaczorowski Lab in February 2026 under the mentorship of Arturo Rocha. Currently, I contribute to projects focused on understanding the mechanisms that determine resilience to neurodegenerative diseases. Having worked as a CNA in nursing homes for four years, I have seen the impact of dementia on residents and their families firsthand, making this research a subject I am deeply passionate about.

In my free time, I enjoy skiing, hiking, playing guitar, running, and spending time with my friends and family!
