Alexander “Shurik” Zavriyev, mS

Shurik is an aspiring actor who just took a very very short detour to get a BS in Physics from the University of Rochester, a 2 year introduction to translational imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital, and is now a graduate student in the PIGI lab (don't worry Hollywood, you'll get him eventually). His research is focused on iterating on and applying HP imaging in various clinical models (finding metabolic targets for HCC, evaluating kidney transplant metabolism). He is thrilled to be working in this new space and is very excited to see where the lab is headed. In his free time, Shurik loves hiking, playing ping pong, and singing loudly enough for the talent recruiters to hear him from off campus.
