Bryce Lambert: Work With REEF: Week 2
This is my second week working for REEF, and it’s been a lot of fun. My mentor Kyler was gone on the second School ex trip (the boat tour of the Channel Islands), so I spent most of my time working in the aquarium and helping run programs. The Nautilus is an exploration ship in […]
Anza Connaughton, Spinal Rehabilitation at the Frazier Institute, Week 3
Hi! I’m coming to the end of my third week at the Frazier Rehab Institute in Louisville, Kentucky. I’ve been here for 3 weeks now and I feel like I’m learning a lot and starting to perfect the tasks that I’ve been given. This week was all about hands-on experience. During week one I got […]
Rider Johnson, Hydraulic Modeling Lab, Week 5
This week was super interesting! I got to help work on two different projects/models. The first was a model of Folsom Dam in California. The model was not of the whole dam, but of the bulkhead gate. These are photos of the model. The black part in the image on the left is the gate. […]
Laila Skramstad Week 5: The Rodham Institute of George Washington University
Hello Everyone! This week I spent half of my time working at the clinic at George Washington University Medical Faculty Associates. I had the opportunity to shadow doctors on the pulmonary and internal medicine floors. During these visits, I met with patients, listened to residents present their treatment to attendings, and learned about the different […]
Eric Gutierrez Week 3: Aerospace Engineering
Welcome back to my blog! Today marks my third week for me here at Oklahoma State University. This week was actually pretty different in comparison to the others. On Monday, I started the day off by waking up at 4:45 AM and getting ready to drive the hour and a half to Norman, Oklahoma. As […]
Mercedes Martinez – Forensic Entomology – “It Wasn’t All In Vein!”
7/11/19- While forensic entomology is incredibly useful in determining time of death in a victim, that requires the presence of a body. Forensics isn’t all about analyzing a body (albeit it’s obviously very crucial to the concept), it’s also about determining facts about a crime. This includes doing so without a body present, putting together […]
Mercedes Martinez – Forensic Entomology – “The Circle of Life”
7/9/19 – For the past couple of days, I’ve been observing the insects that come and go from Squirrel B, as well as traveling around outside the ranch to a town called Bisbee, a once copper-mining town in the Mule Mountains. I, of course, used this wonderful trip to fall into the tourist traps I’ve […]
Ethan Barnes: Game Dev, Week 4
Hello! I am here! Well, what did I do last week? Alrighty, I didn’t spend much time actually doing internship stuff since it was the 4th of July. They were open July 1st, 2nd, and 3rd and closed the 4th and 5th. The week was short but I still learned a lot. I learned a […]
Caroline Lucarelli: Cartilage Research/Equine surgery: Week 4
I have just wrapped up my fourth week in Auburn, and it was a crazy one. On Monday, I observed three surgeries, starting with a mass removal on the ventral side on the trachea. We believe this mass formed from the cartilage cells of the trachea and fibrosis enhanced the size. The mass was successfully resected, and pathology found […]
Kira Galbraith Week 3: Forest Park Animal Hospital
Week 3 was an odd week because there wasn’t much that happened in the office. Monday I was sick all day from the previous weekend. Tuesday I got back on my feet but Dr. Baker wasn’t at the office due to her cat breaking its leg. She ended up taking the cat up north to […]
Rachael Burson – Biotechnological Engineering – Week 3
Aloha, My partner Yash and I have been assigned a phenotyping project. Phenotypes are the physical characteristics of plants. One such characteristic is growth rate. The professors goal is to understand how plants growth rate changes based on environment. This is possible because Hawaii has a large range of climates from one side of the […]
Rider Johnson, Hydraulic Modeling Lab, Week 4
Hard to believe I only have two weeks of my internship left. So far it has been an amazing experience. This week was another short work week because of the holiday. On Monday and Tuesday, I helped one of the engineers take measurements on one of the models. The model was of the Ridgeway dam […]
