• Worked closely with manufacturing and design engineers to carry out both sustaining and new product testing in accordance with ISO requirements for drug injection systems.• Designed and printed test fixtures using Creo CAD software for mechanical testing of irregularly shaped medical devices. • Performed mechanical characterizations using Instron and torsion machines to determine device compliance to ISO standards.

New York, Ny, Us

• Worked as part of a team researching tissue engineering applications for the treatment of Orthopedic and Maxillofacial defects.• Followed standard operating procedures (SOPs) for sample preparation and carried out experiments in accordance with GLP.• Tracked the thermal decomposition of carbonate functional groups in synthetic bone samples using FTIR and TGA for characterization of carbonate type and quantification of carbonate percent respectively. • Analyzed the effects of processing and sintering on composition, crystal size/phases, and mechanical strength of novel bioceramic formulations using ICP, XRD, and Instron respectively. • Designed and tested porous biomimetic scaffolds made from ceramics using a custom 3D printer.• Developed and documented a process for producing a high solid-percent colloidal suspension using a novel bone-like ceramic for use in robocasting applications.• Performed statistical analysis to determine both sample size and significance of results.• Interpreted, compiled, and communicated experimental results verbally and graphically.
