Our Advisor
Dr.Theresa Dinh
Teaches: BIOL205-Advanced Molecular Techniques and BIOL107-Immunology
Mission: As an advisor to SpartanMD at San José State University, my mission is to mentor and support student leaders as they build a collaborative community for aspiring healthcare professionals. I aim to provide guidance, resources, and encouragement that help members explore medical careers, develop leadership skills, and pursue their goals in healthcare. Through mentorship and partnership, I strive to help students grow both academically and professionally.
Lab interest: The Dinh lab’s long-term goal is to systemically delineate the transcriptional cues that dictate vascular segmentation, specifically venules, and how they change under inflammation.
