Samuel Egboh

NeURO Fellow 2025
Undergraduate Student, Human Biology

Samuel Egboh (‘27) is a Human Biology major concentrating in Brain and Behavior. He developed an interest in neuroscience through a curiosity about human behavior and the effects of neurodivergence in his communities. This evolved into a focus on brain development and long-term neural change, which he explores through research and community engagement.

As a 2025 NeURO Fellow, Samuel works in Dr. Harold Phillips’ lab, investigating brain-limited somatic mutations in tuberous sclerosis that drive epilepsy.

On campus, he sings in the Everyday People A Capella, works at the BCSC and Visitor Center, and performs with Stanford’s spoken word collective.
