projects require countless amounts of planning, organization,<br />
and collaboration. I am thankful that I have<br />
developed these types of qualities during my time as<br />
an undergraduate researcher. My plan is to apply this<br />
research experience to graduate school, industry, and<br />
everyday life. Working on projects that are aimed to<br />
help restore health to many people will be something I<br />
always find highly motivational and invaluable.<br />
I would like to thank the Office of <strong>Undergrad</strong>uate<br />

sought-after opportunity. I would also like to thank<br />
Dr. Lamya Karim, Rachana Vaidya, Taraneh Rezaee,<br />
Kelly Merlo, John Riordan, and the Mechanical and<br />
Civil & Environmental Engineering departments for<br />
all the help carrying out this project.<br />
