Co-developed novel dialysate to improve CO2 capture efficiency into medically relevant range Developed LabView program to visualize pressure drop in flow path, enabling iterative prototype development Presented weekly research findings to company leadership

Wrote LabView and MATLAB program to enable high-throughput, real time, kinematic analysis of 3D engineered skeletal tissues using magnetic sensing of contractility - Accelerated preclinical drug screening - Improved disease modeling and cell response from 2D tissue models

Prototyped a biodegradable, self-dilating stent to improve treatment of biliary strictures - Co-authored 30-page report and technical documentation containing background research, initial design concepts, testing methods, and resultsPresented research findings at Johns Hopkins 2022 Engineering Design DayManaged team of undergraduates designing self-swelling pancreatic stent

Developed a tough, hydrogel-based medical adhesive as a biodegradable alternative to sutures for both internal and external lacerations- Exceeded toughness of skin by >100% Presented research findings at Johns Hopkins 2020 Engineering Design Day

Managed monthly general body meetings and facilitated communication with members -Increased member involvement by 80% Co-planned an interactive panel that discussed Vietnamese student mental health in collaboration with six other VSAs from nearby universities

Developed biodegradable and biocompatible magnesium alloy rods with sustained drug release ability and effective ossification bioactivity for treatment of osteomyelitisDip-coated various concentrations of PLA, PCL, and antibiotics onto the rods; and characterized relative degradation and elution rates

Prototyped, alongside a team of three, a wearable device to detect symptoms of major depressive disorder in heart attack patients to prevent recurrence of myocardial infarction in men and women ages 65+. Created a design history file and a business plan.
