In the lab, Jenalyn works to generate ex vivo models of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas from patient peripheral blood and bone marrow samples for the analysis of patients' responses to therapies and other downstream assays. Additionally, Jenalyn contributes to efforts to characterize minimal residual disease (MRD) in mantle cell lymphoma patient who have achieved complete remission (CR) by assessing their genetics and biophysical properties. Jenalyn holds a Bachelor of Arts in Biology from Bard College at Simon's Rock, Great Barrington, MA. Outside of the lab, Jenalyn enjoys reading fiction, non-fiction and fanfiction, playing video games, watching esports tournaments and running, in addition to listening to and playing music, especially rock, folk and pop.
