Amber Wang

Hi! My name is Amber Wang and I’m a member of the class of 2026 from Princeton, New Jersey. At Brown, I am double concentrating in Chemical-Biology and Nonfiction English. When I’m not hunched over a desk trying to decipher chemical structures or Shakespeare, I conduct research on CAR T-cell cancer therapy, run a family for Brown’s Chinese Student Association, work as an EMT for both Warren RI and Brown's ambulance services (BEMS), itinerantly blog with friends, serve as a New Student Orientation Leader, and occasionally sleep. I like cozy coffee shops, classical music, and going to the gym, though usually not all at once. If any of that sounds interesting, feel free to reach out!

Hi Everyone! My name is Matt Wing and I'm a member of the class of 2027 from Westford, Massachusetts. I’m a pre-medical student planning on concentrating in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology with a focus on Human Genetics. Outside of the classroom, I am a member of the Brown Varsity Men’s Cross Country and Track and Field Teams, an avid singer in our student athlete acapella group, Jockapella, and a volunteer with the local non-profit Run Your City. Please feel free to reach out and ask me anything, from being a student-athlete at Brown, pre-med, or even your favorite songs to sing!

Autumn Wong

My name is Autumn Wong (she/her), and I'm a senior Contemplative Studies concentrator on the pre-medical track from Jupiter, Florida. I want to be an astronaut or OBGYN (I always say space, babies, or space babies!) I love research! I’m passionate about maternal health and aerospace medicine, which I've explored through my work as a certified birth doula and the NASA Rhode Island Space Grant on Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation for long-term space travel. I have also done projects on dance therapy and the effects of intermittent fasting for longevity. I plan on taking a gap year between Brown and medical school and continuing my Public Health research in Kigali, Rwanda as well! On campus, I am a second-year Community Coordinator for a First-Year residential hall. I love to meditate with the Brown Meditation Community on the greens across campus (you’ll probably see me napping on the greens, playing volleyball, or meditating).
