I was one of a team of researchers and engineers that developed groundbreaking medical instruments aimed to biomedically evaluate and improve joints. My responsibilities included developing methods for cadaver testing, medical device prototype construction, data collection, and statistical data analysis whilst adhering to lab SOPs. Post project completion, I further contributed to the technical writing portion required for publication submission. My efforts resulted in 4 publications in reputable journals and led to a 15% reduction in time required for project completion.

Ithaca, New York, United States

I researched bone mineral metabolism and its impact on bone formation. Using Mass Spectrometry and other various testing methods I analyzed macrominerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium. My participant recruiting efforts resulted in a 25% increase in sample size and led to an accelerated project completion.

Orange, California, United States

The MI3 Internship at Children's Hospital Orange County provided opportunities to develop solutions related to evolving fields. Areas I researched included genomic medicine, regenerative medicine and stem cells, nanomedicine, robotics, artificial intelligence, medical devices, and innovations in healthcare delivery. I presented the results of my research at a monthly Medical Intelligence and Innovation Institute (MI3) meeting.
