• Synthesized bacto-agar and sucrose solutions for bundled behavior tubes• Flipped Drosophila melanogaster flies into new vials of media• Anesthetized flies using carbon dioxide before loading into prepped tubes

• Ligated recombinant plasmids and multigene constructs through Cre-Lox fusion• Purified histone variant proteins using urea dialysis buffers and SDS-PAGE• Isolated recombinant DNA and bacmid DNA from bacterial cells

• Managed engineering and cross functional alignment• Navigated project management platforms for resource utilization, such as Planview• Explored introductory topics of value stream mapping and lean six sigma

• Collaborated with female undergraduate and graduate students to examine the neurological behavior of C. elegans. • Performed a chemotaxis experiment with wild type and mutant worms to record changes in behavior found in different environments. • Presented conclusions of biological study alongside other research groups.
