Spring 2024 - I am late on updating the addition of Eva Crudo to the Langlais Lab website, alas, she has finally made it to internet fame. Eva comes to us as a result of Macie picking up on some chit chat in class where Eva was expressing some interest in getting in a lab that does experiments. Right place, right time? Perhaps. Eva comes to us from sassy San Diego where she CLAIMS to have learned how to surf, but everyone knows no one can actually surf. Eva, sadly, will not be pursuing science as a career, at least she hasn't seen the light as of yet, but instead would like to go to medical school. She is with us for her Franke Honors College thesis work and she joined the lab starting her junior year. During her time in the Langlais Lab she has discovered that she actually likes discovery-based research and performing experiments, or at least, she CLAIMS to, similar to the surfing thing. I've been surfing twice in my life, the first time was 1993 in South Padre, Texas where I never got up on the board and worse, I was slammed Into the ocean floor by wave power. The second time was sassy San Diego, La Jolla to be exact, in 2003, when again, I came no where close to getting up on the board and instead all I did was strain my back like a loser. WELCOME EVA!
