Aliya is a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at UCLA. Her research topic is on using metabolomics and isotope tracing to study CAR T cell and cancer cell biology. Before graduate school, she received her B.S./M.S.E. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from Johns Hopkins University.
During her M.S.E., Aliya also completed a Co-op with MedImmune/AstraZeneca, where she worked in upstream process development in cell culture and fermentation sciences. She also worked as a research associate at UCSF, using magnetic resonance spectroscopy to elucidate clinical drug impact on glioblastomas.
Aliya is also a fellow at MedTech Innovator, the world’s largest accelerator of medical technology companies, where she has done due diligence work and market research on several startup companies.
In her free time, Aliya enjoys exploring LA, going to the beach, and doing volunteer work for her community.
