Research
06/2004 – 08/2004: UT Southwestern
Description: As a Summer Research Fellow between my first and second years of medical school, I worked with Dr. Kieth Tansey on two projects. The first project evaluated intersegmental spinal reflexes after contusion injury to the spinal cord. My role was to assist in animal preparation and testing, to analyze data, and to harvest pathological specimens. The second project was to test a robot locomotor device designed to evaluate stepping recovery in rats with spinal cord injury.

06/2002 – 08/2002: University of Memphis
Description: During this summer fellowship in biomedical engineering, I worked with Dr. Denis DiAngelo studying the comparative biomechanics of polymer versus titanium spinal fusion devices. Responsibilities included design of the testing apparatus and the collection and analysis of data.

06/2001 – 08/2001: University of Rochester
Description: During this summer fellowship in biomedical engineering, I worked with Dr. Jianhui Zhong developing a protocol for a project in magnetic resonance imaging. The goals of the project were to perform cancer detection in a murine model.
