Undergraduate Co-op
Biomedical Mechanical Engineering

Research Interests : Mechanical Design, Experimental Set-up, Computer Modelling, Physical Application of Engineering Concepts

Working in the lab, I have had the opportunity to work on several of the projects. I have learned how to set up and run PIV experiments, learned more about the mechanical design of experimental apparatus components, and have gained some hand on experience with 3D printing. One of projects I have gotten to work a lot with is building a silicone mold for a soft platform that suspends a heart while its being tested. It has been really interesting to see all the projects going on and being a part of all these things.
