Max Planck Research Group Leaders 

Drew received his B.A. in Mathematics from Princeton University, where he worked on computational biology and biophysics in the labs of Olga Troyanskaya and Eric Wieschaus. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University, where he worked on thermosensory behaviors and brain-wide neural imaging in the Schier and Engert labs.
​
Jen received her B.A. in Molecular Biology from Princeton University, where she worked on host-parasite symbiosis and embryonic development in the Wieschaus lab. She received her Ph.D. from Harvard University, where she worked on operant learning and brain-wide neural imaging in the Schier and Engert labs.
 
Since 2014, Drew and Jen have led a joint laboratory together, first as Rowland Fellows (2014-2019) at the Rowland Institute at Harvard, and now as Max Planck Research Group Leaders at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics (2019-present).
