Professor Brings Out Potential
"Without Dr. Bharathan, I would not have been able to accomplish the things I have and be the person I am today. I feel as though he has more belief in me than I do in myself; it is tremendously incredible. It is what keeps me motivated."
Mary Chey, Class of 2017, Cell and Molecular Biology
