Bio: Hi, my name is Dan Malatesta and I am a Senior from Schenectady, NY. I am pursuing a dual degree with a BS in Biology and a BA in Statistics and Data Science. I am a captain of the Cross Country and Track and Field team here at Lehigh as well. I am passionate about biostatistics and will be pursuing a Masters in Biomedical Data Science following my graduation from Lehigh. Lehigh has opened so many doors for me and has allowed me to grow in so many different ways, from conducting research on using DNA as a computational storage system to winning the annual bed races as a part of the Lehigh-Lafayette Rivalry Week. I have truly enjoyed my time at Lehigh and would love to chat about life at Lehigh, Math, Biology or any other questions you may have. Do not hesitate to reach out!
