Lauren Benovich

Undergraduate Researcher

I have great interest in the underlying mechanisms of the development of neurological disorders and other dysfunctions of the nervous system. I graduate from the University of Michigan in May 2024 with a B.S. of Neuroscience and hope to attend medical school in the future.

I feel honored to be a part of the Kaczorowski lab, investigating underlying genetic modifiers of Huntington’s Disease, particularly looking to better understand the neuropsychiatric symptoms commonly seen in the disease. As a lifelong science nerd and Michigan fan, I am extremely excited to be able to contribute to the advancement of neuroscience research at the University of Michigan!

In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family (hi mom and dad!), being on the lake, and spending way too much money at the State street Starbucks.
