LOS BAÑOS, LAGUNA - For its 35th year, The UPLB Genetics Society will be led by Michelia Merrill Linne Malabrigo, the newly-elected president of the organization for the Academic Year 2018-2019. Despite having doubts at first, Michelia is set to lead GeneSoc on its 35th year—a defining moment in the history of the organization.

In her term, Michelia’s main mantra is  “Transcending Passion and Excellence from Within”. She believes that GeneSoc can be an avenue where members can exemplify their passion and where they can produce a result that is commendable.

She wants to maintain the reputation that GeneSoc excels in every field, whether it be in academics, sports, outreach programs or even national events. She expects that the members of the organization will always be ready to lend a helping hand and never leave anyone behind.
