  Gainesville, Florida Area * Set up multi-channel electrode arrays to record neurons in the brainstem of small animals to map the interconnections of respiratory-related neurons during a swallow, airway obstruction, and breathing. * Assisted with the development of an internal airway percussion medical device to increase the concentration of exhaled protein in humans and canines for the future diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. * Collaborated with a clinical physician for the measurement of cough ability in… Show more * Set up multi-channel electrode arrays to record neurons in the brainstem of small animals to map the interconnections of respiratory-related neurons during a swallow, airway obstruction, and breathing. * Assisted with the development of an internal airway percussion medical device to increase the concentration of exhaled protein in humans and canines for the future diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. * Collaborated with a clinical physician for the measurement of cough ability in elderly patients with non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections. Demonstrated patients with NTM had defect cough ability that might cause lung infections.
