Within the Lin Lab, I conduct a combination of dry lab and wet lab research. I work with two PhD students to stretch MDCK cells on jigs and study the strain on individual cells. After capturing images of cells, I crop images of 100 individual cells from the before and after stretch images, use MATLAB to calculate the nuclear deformation and nuclear strain.

As a resource committee member for the Students for Community Outreach, Promotion, and Education (SCOPE) Patient Health Advocates, I update databases of community resources for underserved populations in the Los Angeles area. My work as a patient health advocate helps address needs that often go unmet within a traditional clinic setting. As a patient.

As a member of the cell team, I attended weekly modules and labs that focused on introductory cell research. These skills included cell culture, immunostaining, western blot, and poster design. I also worked in a team to design and carry out an independent research project. For this project, my group studied how varying antibiotic concentrations impacted.

As a research assistant, I made rounds around UCLA health and visited different clinics. I would approach each patient who came in and talk to them about whether they would like to donate their biological samples to research. If a patient demonstrated interest, I walked them through a consent form and had them watch a video on the research initiative. I.
