Logan Files- OSU(Aerospace Engineering)- week 4
On the Monday of my last week, I started to build the inflatable-winged airplane. I cut the fuselage nose and tail as well as the v-tail pieces on the laser cutter and then built the body up. I decided to reinforce the fuselage by adding fiberglass rods on the corners. This technique worked extremely well […]

Andrea Peralta-Villa, Criminology, Week 5
This week, I spent my time working on a presentation that I am supposed to give to a group of undergraduates before handing my research over to them. While researching, I have had to think about the reproducibility of my work, patterns, and methodology. I am extremely nervous about my presentation, but I have put […]
Logan Files- OSU(Aerospace Engineering)- week 4
On Monday we implemented the motor into the middle piece of the plane. We felt this method of squishing the foam between two plates would be a sturdy way of binding the motor to foam. I designed and laser cut a piece of wood to match the carbon fiber mount that already came with the […]
Micah Hoffman – OSU Aerospace Engineering – Week 4 Finale
This week was my final week at OSU and I did a lot of work involving RC planes such as building, designing, and flying. On Monday, we starting building the Biplane design that we had decided on last week. We started by building the fuselage, which we made by stacking three Styrofoam sheets and cutting […]
Andrea Peralta-Villa, Criminology, Week 4
This week was great! It was extremely productive and I got to break out of my usual work routine. To start of the week, I attended a meeting at the Institute of Behavioral Science, then in the middle of the week I attended another meeting with the librarian at CU Law to help us navigate […]
Micah Hoffman – OSU Aerospace Engineering – Week 3
Hello, everyone! Monday was a somewhat slow day. We did a lot of computer aided designing (CADing) for our solar cell box proto-type because our group leaders decided to use our design for the solar cell box and they needed a specific design outline for the final project. Even though we already had a CADed […]
Logan Files- OSU(Aerospace Engineering)- week 3
Monday was a celebration for the other high schoolers’ departure. We went to the airfield to shoot off the rockets we had made previously and to have a cookout. It was fun talking with the other kids and seeing everyone there. When we started launching rockets the wind was worse than it had been the […]
Yaphet Reyes Powell – University of California, San Diego, Nano engineering – Week 7 (Last week)
This week was a wrap-up for everything in the program, it was a preparation for an upcoming science presentation I gave with Arturo my lab partner, we had some free days and I hung out more with my roommates visiting different parts of San Diego. Monday we had a seminar with a famous bass […]
Sacha Keenan Frazier Rehab- Week 5
Hope you all are well! I’ve kept y’all waiting for long enough! Week 5 was my last week in Kentucky however I will be continuing my work into the school year with my professor. In terms of my project, without doing an official analysis we’ve come to the conclusion that my original hypothesis about the […]

This week was great. I have been in head and neck surgery for two weeks. I learned how to suture and read different scans. I was in a tumor resection of the ear where I saw all of the middle ear structure. They resected both canals and the ear structures like the hammer, anvil, and […]
Andrea Peralta-Villa, Criminology, Week 3
As the title states, it’s been three weeks since I arrived in Boulder for my internship. It has felt a lot shorter than I anticipated, even so, I have learned much more than I could have imagined. I followed the same routine, as usual, I went to the IBS (Institute of Behavioral Science), I did […]
