Profile
Luning (Lucy) Liu
"I chose biomedical engineering because it combines the things that I really like - healthcare and being able to help people - but from an engineering perspective. You get to change people’s lives and make a difference. I’ve learned how to make circuits, process data, coding, mechanical analysis, and developed communication skills through project work and internships."
