Description

In this season of “Let’s Talk About,” we’re featuring students who are passionate about making service a part of their Princeton experience and living lives of service after they graduate.

Daniel Alber is a second-year PhD student at Princeton studying Chemical and Biological Engineering, where his research centers around how lungs grow and shape themselves. This year, he helped to organize the Princeton Online Tutoring Network, a free online tutoring platform that matches Princeton students, staff, and faculty with underserved students in the local community. Within POTN, Daniel is the site coordinator for Corner House, a local organization that works with families to prevent and treat issues related to addiction and substance abuse. When he’s not doing research, volunteering with POTN, or working towards a career in academia, Daniel enjoys fitness, hiking, and cooking.
