Winner, 2025 UCSF Grad Slam and 2025 UC Grad Slam
Ms. Miliotis joined the Roan Lab at UCSF in 2023. She uses CyTOF and single cell-sequencing to characterize HIV-infected cells, particularly from mucosal tissues, including the female reproductive tract. As an undergraduate at Beloit College, she analyzed the regenerative effects of artificial mitochondria transfer on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) damaged by ultraviolet radiation and earned a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry. After graduating, she joined Vir Biotechnology to characterize immune phenotypes of serological samples from hepatitis B virus (HBV)-positive patient samples and optimize PBMC isolation procedures for SARS-CoV2, HBV, and HIV phase II/III vaccine clinical trial samples.
