Amber Abbott ('20) talks about her study of microbiology and the breadth of experiences Virginia Tech offers.

[00:00:00] >> My name is Amber, my science is microbiology. What I love about Virginia Tech is the experiences and opportunities available for undergraduates and research. I've been in a research lab for about 3 years now, investigating herpes simplex viruses. I'm now applying for PhD programs and after that, one day I'd like to be able to lead my own lab directing research related to infectious diseases.
