Josh Ives, Computational Biology at CMU, Week 5
Hello everyone! I just completed my second to last week at CMU studying computational biology. While I have enjoyed just about every minute of my time here, this week was particularly fun. I still spent some time in the lab doing biology stuff, but most of this week was spent coding one really interesting project […]
Clara Carrasco: Aerospace Engineering, The Sixth Week
As the final week in Boulder, Colorado, Caroline and I made sure to get our businesses in order. We finished our projects and created separate presentations. I created the drawing of my interface plate in SOLIDWORKS, so the shop can machine it while I’m absent. Caroline and I presented to three people. Two graduate students […]
Carter Andrew: Conservation Metrics: Week 7
Monday: I spent most of my morning working on researching how to make an installer file. This was inspired by a meeting I had about integrating my projects into the workflow at CMI. If we could set the file up in the same to place on every computer we could devise an R script that […]
Anza Connaughton, Spinal Rehabilitation at the Frazier Institute, Week 6
Hello there friends! This week marked week 6 of 7 of my time here Louisville, Kentucky interning at the Frazier Institute. This week is my second-to-last week at the center but that didn’t stop me from continuing to learn more about the work that we’re doing. I’ve obviously learned a lot about research, spinal cord […]
Claire Shaver- Behavioral Science, Week 6
This week was my 6th week at the Bernier Lab, and it went by in a whirlwind. At the beginning of the week we were preparing for the conference visits to start on Wednesday. This involved getting final paper work together, setting up testing kits, and lots more. Once the conference started up, I observed […]
Trey Schwerdtfeger: Naval Architecture, Week Five
I cannot believe my time here is almost over. This has been the most amazing experience. This week I got the opportunity to work with kids, by expanding there understanding of how boats work as well as team building exercises and games and sailing. This was a day camp called the float box derby. We […]
Lucy Wesson: Communication and Learning Lab at the University of Chicago, Week 4
Week Four at the Communication and Learning Lab This week was, again, slightly slower than usual. The higher-ups at the lab all went to a conference in Montreal on cognitive science. So, most of the week consisted of reading papers. We did, however, run one study quite successfully, and then coded the video within the […]
Danika Petit: George Lab Week Five
Hello again!! I’m very sad that there is only one week left to enjoy such a wonderful place and learn more from an amzing lab. San Diego has exceeded expectations and has given me a vision into the future and possible careers I want to pursue. This week I have primarily been focusing on creating […]
Jonah Jodlowski Week 4: Marine Biology
Happy Sunday everybody! Another week, another experimental failure, and more frustration in the Miller Lab. That is actually an overexaggerati0n. Everyone was calm even though half of the urchin population died off once again. I would say it was a “happy accident” not an experimental failure. Since the urchins were to be sacrificed following the […]
