"Say it in 6: "I wanted to make an impact." Kerestin Goodman is pursuing a doctorate in Biochemistry at Florida State University. Interested in improving the health of people with diseases, Kerestin's research focuses on the effects of microplastics on human cells, particularly lung cells. Her research so far indicates that these tiny particles do cause changes on the cellular level in humans that previously was unknown. A recipient of the McKnight Dissertation Fellowship, among other awards, Kerestin aspires to a career as a research scientist.
