Work History
Student Researcher
Jonathan Butcher Lab (Cornell University)
10.2023 - Current
- Independently designed a research plan to understand metabolic waste movement in heart valves.
- Utilized 3D-Organ-on-a-Chip assay to collect in-vitro data on lymphatic behavior of valvular endothelial cells.
- Collaborated with another student researcher to validate thetranslatability of in-vitro data with in-vivo data to
- streamline future research.
- Establish novel protocols for experimentation on cardiac valvular cells and quantification of image data.
- Ran disease modeling experimentation on HUVECs, porcine valve cells, and human lymphatic cells, which was
- then presented and communicated to internal groups.
Research Assistant
Huaxiao “Adam” Yang Lab (University Of North Texas
04.2022 - 10.2023
- Created, optimized, and utilized a micropatterned dish model to understand disease state progression of
- congenital heart disease, specially Left Ventricular Non-Compaction (LVNC).
- Manipulated an alternative 3D spheroid model to cross-validate the micropatterned dish model.
- Assisted in development of novel microfabrication techniques for differentiating patient-derived iPSCs.
- Worked with 8 fellow laboratory members to optimize in-vitro conditions for LVNC study, improving
- differentiation success by more than 50%.
- Trained and lead teams of undergraduate students in experiments thereby fostering more productive lab
- environment.
Teaching Assistant
University Of North Texas- Discovery Park
10.2022 - 05.2023
- Taught 8 laboratory sections of approximately 20 senior and graduate students the basics of mammalian cell culture and wet laboratory techniques.
- Lectured introductory Biomedical Engineering class alongside the professor and independently led 3
- discussion sections of approximately 20 students each.
- Organized overhaul and revision of laboratory manuals to meet ABET accreditation standards and improve
- student learning.
- Developed, deployed, and graded quizzes, exams, and homework using education software (e.g. Canvas)
