Week 2 Keerthana




 Heyy!!! I’m back for a week two update 🫨. This week my partner and I brainstormed ideas for our project and I’m really excited to create something on our own. So far our idea is to either create a machine that responds to external noise or build on the robot that we preciously built but change it so that it responds to light as opposed to objects. My favorite part of the tour was when our tour guide mentioned how the term “clean room” doesn’t just describe one single thing there are a lot of working components that are necessary for it to function. Additionally I loved how no one could guess that the image from the microscope was a butterfly wing. It was unrecognizable because of how closely it was inspected. 🦋🦋🦋

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...
