• Fine-tuning language models for text and audio classification to improve Alzheimer's disease diagnostics. • Designing and implementing a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline using multi-modal patient data to enhance health assessments. • Processing and analyzing audio data to extract relevant features from patient speech.• Conducting a comprehensive literature review on speech-based prediction methods for Alzheimer's disease, healthcare applications of LLMs, and relevant transformer architectures.

• Synthesized and characterized materials using methods such as chemical vapor transport and x-ray diffraction to advance thermoelectric technology in device applications.• Constructed hardware and created a correspondent program to automate control of a radio frequency generator.

• Performed orthotopic modeling, survival surgeries, and long-term observational and interventional studies in murine models.• Conducted statistical analysis of experimental results and extensive literature review in relevant areas of research (e.g., cellular metabolism, oncology, endocrinology) to assist with daily lab projects.• Maintained long-term tissue cultures of human cell lines, monitored cells for viability and contamination under strict aseptic conditions, and performed cell-based assays.

• Designed and implemented a project exploring microbial identification and genomic sequencing.• Performed molecular biology techniques, such as DNA isolation and PCR, and acquired introductory experience in bioinformatics.
