Alumni Guest Speaker
EVA NATALIA SOLER CRUZ
CLASS OF 2020
Eva Natalia Soler Cruz ’20 graduated from Columbia University with a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering, concentrating in Genomics. During her time at TASIS Dorado, she served as President of the Student Council, competed on the Science Bowl Team, was a student-athlete on the volleyball team, and pursued her passion for music as a pianist. She graduated as a Class Scholar and was honored with the Priscilla González Stubbe Leadership Award. Eva returns to TASIS Dorado as a proud alumna and guest speaker for the Class of 2025 Graduation Ceremony.
At Columbia, Eva was actively involved in the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), serving as a dedicated member for four years and as President in her final year, focusing on strengthening connections between the STEM professional world and the Hispanic community. She also conducted research in two prominent labs: the Danino Lab, which specializes in engineering bacterial therapeutics, and the Azizi Lab, a computational oncology laboratory.
These formative experiences prepared her to contribute to impactful projects at NASA and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals and to present her work at national conferences. Her commitment to biomedical research, leadership in STEM outreach initiatives for minority students in New York City, and dedication to the Hispanic community was recognized at the Columbia graduation with the Claire S. and Robert E. Reiss Prize, a recognition given by the faculty of the program to the graduating senior as most likely to contribute substantially to the field.
Eva is currently an Associate Scientist at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals in New York, working in the Protein Expression Sciences department. As part of the Technology Development team, she focuses on developing novel methods to advance the discovery of therapeutic antibodies targeting metabolic and infectious diseases, with the goal of translating science into medicines that will hopefully reach patients.
