Jerry Sharpe, Computational Biology, Brown University, Week 5
This week I started working with anti-body staining. I took two poly di-lysine slides (sample sticks better if coated), segmented tissue, fixed and washed it as I had done with all my previous samples in the weeks earlier. Then I treated it with two 5 minute washes in a 0.1% chemical solution of tween in […]
Bjorn Cristol, Civil and Material Engineering, Week 6
This week was very wonderful. I started writing up a paper on data collected using the permeameter I built which is going to be a nice way to wrap up this internship. On top of that, I did a lot of work on the code analyzing the Guternberg – Richter relationship for both real and […]
