  • 8/2024— Present

    This research consisted of working with a team to assess the need for cytomegalovirus prophylaxis in pediatric patients at moderate risk for infection/reactivation following bone marrow transplant.

    Skills Acquired:

    RedCAP Data Organization

    Chart Review Data Collection

    Statistical Analysis:

    • Chi-Square Test

    • Fischer's Exact Test

    • Multivariable Logistic Regression

  • 1/2022— 5/2024

    This research consisted of working with a professor to understand a line of breast cancer cells, MCF7 cells, better by documenting their response to different active compounds in cinnamon.

    Skills Acquired:

    Culturing cell lines

    Examining cells under a microscope

    Splitting cells

    Creating a series dilution

  • 1/2021 — 5/2024

    This research originally involved creating titanium complexes in a cleaner and easier way that were able to polymerize lactide. After reading an article that was published showing similar titanium complexes achieving activity against MCF7 cells, the focus shifted to creating and testing my titanium complexes against this breast cancer line.

    Skills Acquired:

    NMR use and reading

    Glove box and hood technique

    Combiflash use
