I worked under Dr. J. Adam Cunha on two projects. First, we updated the in-house treatment planning software to incorporate biological dose models. Second, we redesigned a popular brachytherapy applicator used for nasopharyngeal cancer. This new design implemented radiation shielding to protect healthy tissue near the nasopharynx during treatment, giving.

Brooklyn, New York, United States

I created course content and edited their problem sets/exams. In additions, I answered content-related questions on their online help forum as well as held virtual office hours twice per week.

Providence, Rhode Island, United States

I prepared lesson plans and ran problem-solving sessions for introductory physics and multivariable calculus classes through the Brown Academic Tutoring Center. I was appointed to the Tutor Advisory Board and to be a Physics Tutor Leader for 2019-2020. My responsibilities include proctoring tutor training sessions, holding monthly discipline meetings, and.

Using patient archives from Rhode Island hospital, we applied ensembles of machine learning models to clinical data on multiple sclerosis to predict future disease severity. I was the main programmer on this project. Model building is being done with Keras using Tensorflow as the backend.

Providence, Rhode Island Area

I ran problem-solving/material review sessions for Brown's PHYS 0030 Basic Physics A, PHYS 0040 Basic Physics B, and PHYS 0160 Introduction to Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. Duties included preparing review problems, giving lessons, maintaining a collaborative learning environment, and working through tough example problems.

Providence, Rhode Island Area

I graded the homework sets for Brown's 0070 Analytical Mechanics course. Duties included grading weekly homeworks and writing up solutions for each problem.

As part of the Aerie tutoring program at Wheeler, I taught the Advanced Mechanics, Algebra I, and accelerated Precalculus courses. My responsibilities included giving lectures, creating and assigning homework, writing and proctoring exams, and awarding grades. All of my Advanced Mechanics students took the AP Physics C Mechanics exam.

Madison, New Jersey

Focused in computational neuroscience, I implemented the learning algorithm proposed by Obermayer, Ritter, and Schulten in their 1990 paper, A principle for the formation of the spatial structure of cortical feature maps. We used Matlab to code artificial striate neurons to mimic cortical structure and prove the proposed algorithm. Research included a.
