Riley Geisler, Life Sciences

Introduction

Hi everyone! I'm Riley; I completed my BScH Life Science with a specialization in Neuroscience last year and am finishing my accelerated MSc (Neuroscience) this year, hoping to begin my MD/PhD next fall. I chose Queen's for our enduring sense of community, beautiful architecture and facilities, and high-quality education. The past four years at Queen's have taught me invaluable lessons in accountability, initiative, and compassion - simply put, I wouldn't be who I am without the tricolour influence. My favourite thing about Queen's is that no matter what you find exciting and enjoyable, you'll find a group of like-minded individuals and the perfect spot to do what you love; you truly get the small-town feeling with the perks of a large city. For me, I found my people and passions in music, research, and working in the Kingston community. I also TA some upper-year NSCI courses, so if you have any questions about the program or finding research opportunities, don't be afraid to reach out. I love to chat, so if you want to connect online or see me around campus, feel free to strike up a conversation!
