Arisha Tariq

Arisha Tariq is the section manager for COVID-19 disease studies research. Arisha oversees several task groups and manages students that create infographics, statistics, and articles. She also keeps track of all these projects and assists group members with their research. Arisha is an undergraduate sophomore at Pennsylvania State University studying Genetics and Developmental Biology. Her current goals and aspirations include going to medical school and pursuing either cardiology or internal medicine. She started her research in high school, with epidemiological studies (now relevant to the current situation of COVID-19). She really misses doing research, so RFC allows her to do that while educating and increasing awareness of public issues! In her free time, she likes to volunteer as a crisis counselor, travel, and bake! She’s excited to be a part of RFC.
