My name is Bassam Mitri and I am a senior at the UA majoring in Molecular and Cellular Biology. I work in the Capaldi lab, mainly focused on understanding the interactions underlying the PKA protein and its substrates.
I lived overseas in Lebanon for the majority of my life and hope to continue my journey in the US. I enjoy all kinds of sports and just recently got more involved in Jiu-Jitsu. A great sport for working both the body and mind!
