By working with Dr. Paul Brakeman, medical director of the UCSF Pediatric Kidney Transplant Program, I gained hands-on experience in product design, Arduino, and electronics engineering. Our project was to design a fully-functional automated kidney dialysis device for understaffed hospitals in third-world countries. My responsbilities included: - testing of the prototype, particularly its electromechanical actuators - analyzing software and hardware issues - drafting an action plan to improve the design of the final product I also joined Dr. Waqas Khalid's nanotechnology lab, in which the research focus was to improve the efficiency of present-day energy storage technology using carbon nanotubes (CNTs). As part of his team, I explored: - carbon nanotube fabrication - capacitance and dielectrics - energy manufacturing and storage - lithium-ion battery technology - electronics and electrochemistry Using this knowledge, I worked with my subteam to draft a literature review and market analysis on the viability of CNTs in energy storage chips. Skills: Experience with carbon nanotubes, electrochemistry, electrical engineering; prototype, product design and development; Arduino; understanding of experimental research process Show less
