Overview
Britt Goods' research lies at the intersection of reproductive health, immunology, and biological engineering. Prior to joining Dartmouth, Britt received her PhD in biological engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She subsequently was a postdoctoral fellow with Dr. Alex Shalek at the Broad Institute, the Ragon Institute and the Institute for Medical Engineering and Sciences.
