Marco Hosfeld

Ex-Varsity Swimmer for Duke University and current Biomedical Engineering major in senior year at Duke University. I have a penchant for Islay scotch as well as hunting. I'm more of a grandpa than I am a college student, but I have enjoyed my time at Duke University and hope to continue studying after undergrad. I currently work with the Lynch lab and have been working with griffithsin since the previous year. Let's go Duke.
