Biography

Sumbel is a PhD candidate in the Department of Chemistry and Environmental Science at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. She is currently researching the biotransformation and biodefluorination of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) by bacteria in hopes to uncover the enzymes responsible for PFASs metabolism. She is a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow and the President/Founder of Graduations for Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity (GIDE) at NJIT.
