Rishab is an undergraduate student at the University of Utah, where he is pursuing a major in biology with a focus on anatomy and physiology. He is dedicated to becoming an emergency medicine physician and is passionate about understanding the complexities of critical care and trauma management. He is currently working on an honors biology thesis investigating glaucoma, focusing on its pathophysiology. In the Roy Lab, Rishab aims to explore the mechanisms of retinal neural circuits and how disruptions in these pathways contribute to visual disorders like glaucoma. He believes his research will not only enhance his clinical knowledge but also contribute to the development of innovative preventative therapies for retinal diseases. Outside of research, Rishab enjoys working out, playing tennis, and hiking.
