Coatesville, Pennsylvania, United States

• Made significant contributions to the entire data life cycle supporting the verification and validation of the company’s medical device, from fine-tuning of the physiological data acquisition process to writing custom scripts for post-processing analysis and reporting/archiving.• Devised analytical methods to process physiological data captured at 1000s/sec, with feature extraction, filtering, and parameter calculation capabilities.• Conducted daily clinically-relevant testing using the company’s medical device, improving the overall operation of the medical device compared to the predicate system.• Supported the development of the company’s manufacturing and assembly process verification utilizing Arduino microcontrollers and custom scripts.• Created documentation supporting Quality Management activities and FDA 510(k) submission preparation.

Maryland, United States

• Developed MATLAB scripts to sort, graph, and perform regression analysis on multiple neuronal datasets• Analyzed self-made regression plots to find examples of reverse neuronal firing patterns, theorized to consolidate memory,occurring in the hippocampus of a mouse.• Assembled audio files that transformed neuronal data into midi-data, correlating groups of hippocampus cells to differentinstruments, creating a symphony of neuronal data .• Produced a video using live neuronal data and T-maze trial videos that showcased examples of memory consolidation firingpatterns in the hippocampus of rats performing a T-maze task.

Boston, Massachusetts, United States

• Executed a cardio-respiratory experimental paradigm up to three times a week.• Measured participants’ heart and respiratory rates and tracked their eye movements while they performed a visual searchtask.• Implemented the pandas library in python scripts to analyze .csv data from the experiment, revealing that the diastole phaseof participants’ cardiac cycle often predicted eye movements.

Boston, Massachusetts, United States

• Executed and analyzed a pilot study intended to observe the effectiveness of predator urine as a fearful stimulus for rats.• Performed Pavlovian fear conditioning on rats for multiple different experiments being run through the lab .• Executed perfusions and brain/spinal cord extractions for all experiments in the lab.• Organized, analyzed, and presented experiment data at weekly lab meetings.• Trained lab volunteers to make solutions, perform perfusions and extractions, slice and mount brains, and execute the fear conditioning paradigm.
