In a way I would say she's filling an inevitable role. She's the bottom of her class, mundane character to accompany the genius.
Soma is just waaay too overtalented, though he has a goal to reach his father, the starting line for him is already at the genius level.
Since "growth" will be harder to measure for characters like him, someone starting at the ground level is paired instead to portray growth. Or so we hope.
Remember Neuro and his assistant (and protagonist) Yako? Neuro was the all-mighty character, Yako was the earthling with much larger scale of growth.

Let's hope she doesn't end up like Kawachi from Yakitate Japan. Well, being a cute girl already prevents her from ending up as the butt of most jokes, but hopefully she'll end up being a strong character.
