Mrs. Whitney Golden received her Bachelor of Science degree (B.S) in May 2012 from the Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, LA. She then attended Louisiana Tech University and received her Master of Science degree (M.S) in Molecular and Cellular Biology in November 2013. Her thesis title was “Adenylate Cyclase 9 Gene Sequence Polymorphism in a Human Population Segregating for Multiple Sclerosis” where she studied a polymorphism found previously in a small population of Multiple Sclerosis positive and Multiple Sclerosis negative subjects. She started working in the Aikawa-Aikawa Laboratories in June 2014 as the Laboratory Manager/ Technical Assistant.
