Undergraduate Research Poster Presentation
I conducted research during the summer leading up to and during my senior year. In the Spring of 2024, I presented my findings in a poster presentation alongside other Biochemistry & Molecular Biology majors at Wake Forest University.
RadPhysics
In collaboration with RadPhysics, my team worked together to assess the market potential and commercial viability of their MERP® error reduction reporting platform. I identified potential partnerships across both academic centers and community/regional hospital networks with radiation oncology departments. The partners identified aimed to best balance scalability with innovation. The final deliverables to the company included strategic insights on partnerships, market planning, and areas for growth. A final presentation was given to developers and investors.
Gilead
My team and I researched over 30 emerging technologies in biopharma. We evaluated the technologies' maturity levels using a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) and risk framework. We met weekly with our advisor at Gilead to provide updates on our research. I provided deep research on the technologies with the highest-impact opportunity in synthetic and advanced biomanufacturing.
Perlite AI
We evaluated how Perlite AI, a mechanical insecticide, could be deployed through indoor residual spraying (IRS) programs, particularly in regions with the greatest disease burden. Our analysis highlighted the potential for community-based IRS programs in Africa to reduce the cost of malaria interventions while expanding access to effective vector control tools. We presented our findings at the CATALYZE pitch competition at NC State.
Spinhance
In this project, I, alongside my team, are conducting a strategic analysis of digital pathology (DP) adoption across leading pathology laboratories, focusing on workflow inefficiencies, imaging infrastructure, and barriers to implementation. We have designed and distributed a survey to pathology labs and hospital departments, and plan to use these insights to synthesize a framework evaluating how DP solutions can improve diagnostic efficiency and scalability.
