Risako Kimura

Co-President

Risa is a PhD student in the Neurobiology & Behavior Program at Columbia, where she studies the aging and diseased nervous system. She joined CUNO in 2020 and worked primarily with the Saturday Science and Curriculum Development teams to develop neuroscience lessons for NYC children. Now, she is excited to be CUNO Co-President with Briana! Risa hopes that CUNO efforts will make science more accessible to more people, thereby increasing public interest and support for science.
