Margaret (Maggie) joined the McKay Orthopaedic Research Laboratory in the fall of 2021 and is currently working to complete a combined MD-PhD degree with her doctoral studies in the Department of Bioengineering. In lab, she can be found admiring the natural beauty of tendons or bedazzling the pipette stand. Outside of lab, she is an aspiring Real Housewife of Philadelphia (hoping Andy Cohen will call any day now) and enjoys watching gymnastics, shopping at Marshalls, and checking out Philly's live music scene.
