Eric Garcia

Eric received his BS in Biology from Point Loma Nazarene University, where he performed undergraduate research under Dr. Michael Dorrell. Dr. Dorrell’s lab studied the synergistic effects of angiostatic drugs and their ability to inhibit tumor blood vessel formation. The lab’s other focus was to directly target glioblastomas at the tumor site using a prodrug therapy.

After graduating in 2017, he spent three years at BioLegend as a manufacturing associate III in the tissue culture department. BioLegend is a San Diego biotech company which focuses on developing antibodies and reagents for the advancement of biomedical research. His role in the lab varied from performing tissue culture to helping develop daily management practices in the lab.

Eric is a San Diego Native, and in his free time he likes to explore new restaurants and coffee shops, and to exercise.
