Please briefly describe any previous laboratory experience
I worked in a biomaterials lab in HS (created an antimicrobial dental resin), learned how to use some instruments like FTIR and UV/Vis but never worked with anything bio-related.
I worked in the Langer Lab for one year and learned how to do cell cultures but still focused on biomaterials/drug delivery (created hydrogel for insulin delivery).
Currently I am working in the Prather Lab and use a lot of molecular biology techniques to metabolically engineer E.coli to produce propanol.
Please briefly describe any previous technical communication experience you have
- Written Communication
I have written two research papers, one in HS and one during my time at the Langer Lab.
- Oral Communication
I've presented at ISEF and I took a Toastmasters class during HS
Anything else you would like us to know?
