Farrar Desloge – CSM – Week 5
Hi all, I am working with Dr. Petruska at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden, in his robotics lab on a few different projects. For the first half of this week, I was at home visiting family, but still had a relatively eventful latter half of my week. On Thursday and Friday, I worked […]
Canyon Ishikawa, Organic Chemistry at Scripps Research Institute, Week 4
Due to the Fourth of July, my days in the lab were cut one day short this week; however, it was by far the most valuable week. Throughout week 4 of my internship at Engle Lab, and much like this weekend’s holiday, I’ve been able to become much more independent. As Johnny got back this […]
Beck Gilliland, Marine Biology, Week 5
Hey everyone, Beck out here in Santa Barbara with a week five update. This week I had Monday off for the fourth of July. I was able to go in to downtown and watch some great fireworks out over Stearns Wharf which was fun. Once Tuesday rolled around, it was back to the lab. This […]
River Randolph Astrophysics Internship at LASP Week 4
I started this week without much to do, since the nozzle for the 3d printer won’t come in until next week, so not much progress was made with the 3d printer throughout the week. Instead of working on the printer gram and I worked on this metal piece that will be going into space for […]

Yaphet Reyes Powell – University of California, San Diego, Nanoengineering and Electro chemestry- Week 3
Hello, This week has been really confusing since some activities cut me out of my regular lab schedule, however, my mentor Taehee has gotten more comfortable with leaving me, and my lab partner Arthur alone at the lab using all of the tools and making different solutions, something that I am really happy about, as […]
Owen Doyle, Architectural Engineering, Week 5
Hey, I’m Owen Doyle and I’m interning at an architectural engineering firm called ME&E in Durango Colorado. This week was filled with a lot of studying. I developed a more complex understanding of the electrical systems in buildings through field visits and the help of my mentor. We looked at grounding, voltage, watts, resistance, and […]
Olivia Hatcher – Biochemistry – Week 3
This week was very fun. I started off with some data analysis, where I graphed some data from last week, along with the different concentrations of NATA, L-Trip and Indole. This was interesting because I found that the pH of the solution does not greatly affect the epsilon, or the absorption The calculated epsilon (part […]
Evan Strand | Scripps Neuroscience Lab | Week 4
Hey, I’m Evan Strand and I’m interning at the Dorris Neuroscience Lab with Scripps Research. The lab that I’m working with is focusing on how changes in the brain effect the animal’s metabolism. If you haven’t seen last, I was talking about how I was doing GTTs and ITTs. Turns out, I only did GTTs […]
Natalie Hernandez | Week 4 | University of Houston Internship
This week has been very enlightening. I feel as if this week has been as close to what a real research experience is. I have had a lot of failed attempts and a lot of successful attempts. Monday professor Baldelli reviewed my images and said they were pretty solid, but the resolution wasn’t ideal. […]
Canyon Ishikawa, Organic Chemistry at Scripps Research Institute, Week 3
This week I met with surprise when I came in on Monday and was told that Johnny had gotten sick over the weekend. This meant that I’d continue my shadowing of Skylar for the entirety of this week, too. Overall though, it was another super interesting week full of learning and more hands-on experience. On […]
