Jonathan's blog post

 1. I prepared for Paths-up young scholars by sleeping the night before.

2. I thought that the pulse oximeter and accelerometer were the most intriguing despite the relatively simplistic code and design. The Arduino kits were also interesting in the sense that you could use sensors inside your design that takes in input and responds with some sort of output.

3. Im looking forward to working more with the tiny watch and connecting different components onto one screen to where it becomes more applicable and versatile.

Week 1: Anagha

 1) To prepare for the Young Scholars Program, I enrolled in some classes to introduce myself to concepts of physiology and the integration  of engineering techniques in the healthcare realm, as well as revisiting basics of coding and physics concepts. 2) My first thoughts about the research projects that I was assigned was overall excitement about the opportunity and the materials, software, and hardware and the chance to use my creativity to explore new technologies. My mentors are very knowledgeable and I love hearing about their stories and journeys in their own careers, which helps to serve as a role model for my own. 3) For week 2, I am looking forward to continuing my research project and learning new things about digital health and engineering, as well as exploring the campus, materials, and opportunities for me to explore my future. 4) I am so interested to go explore the physics building, Brockman Hall! Definitely one of my favorites from the tour!

Week 1 - Justin

What were some things you did to prepare for the Young Scholars Program? When I first knew I got into the Young Scholars program, I wanted to learn more about what we might cover in the camp, so I looked at what PATHS-UP was and read some info on what it stood for. I also prepared for the Young Scholars Program by reading the public info page where you apply and the emails sent out regarding directions and what to bring. As I was excited but scared for the camp on the first day, I spent an hour packing my bag with things I might need, from water to a laptop. What are your first thoughts on the projects that you have been working on? The projects we are learning about are all very interesting, but new. As I have always stayed in the realm of computer science, I never touched on any of the engineering portions we cover, such as building circuits, schematics, the Arduino, and the smartwatch assembly. It felt really reminiscent of Legos, which I liked a lot as a child, drawing that part of...
