Preston Santo

Undergraduate Researcher

I joined the Randall Lab in the winter of 2024 as a volunteer and was later brought on as an official member. My research focuses on antimicrobial peptides, and I am currently involved in developing a rapid, non-toxic antimicrobial peptide screening technology. I’m passionate about exploring the therapeutic potential of peptides in addressing both infectious diseases and cancer.
