Eleanor Ransdell-Green graduated from the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) in 2022 with a B.S. in Biological Sciences, concentrating in Cell and Molecular Biology. In 2020, Eleanor worked as a teaching assistant in Genetics at UAF. In 2021, Eleanor conducted research on metabolic remodeling in stickleback fish, funded by an NIH IDeA grant. She presented her findings at the 2022 Midnight Sun Science Symposium and the 2022 URSA Research Day, earning the Dean’s Choice Award. She also contributed as a co-author to a manuscript published in the Journal of Experimental Biology. In 2022, she moved to Omaha, Nebraska to pursue a Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC). Her current research focuses on developing polymer-based prodrug delivery systems for the sustained delivery of therapeutic drugs.
