RESEARCH/PROJECTS

At-Home Lower Lumbar Physical Therapy Device Jan 2017 – May 2017

Developed a lightweight, flexible brace embedded with electronics and gyroscope that connects to an Android OS application via Bluetooth made for lower back pain patients to monitor their Range of Motion (ROM) as they perform their exercises. The application allowed the patient to view their progress visually, as well as provided videos that allowed the patient to know what exercise to perform and how to perform them.

Combined ATR/CHK1 Inhibition on U-87 Cell Viability to TMZ Treatment June 2016 – Aug 2016

Determined if there are inhibitors that could be paired with Temozolomide (TMZ), a current drug for glioblastoma, to increase DNA damage of the target cells and decrease cell viability. The use of ATR and CHK1 inhibitors was paired with TMZ to induce greater DNA damage and result in a change in apoptotic activity and viability.

Biofeedback Brace for Lower Lumbar Jan 2014 – May 2014

Created a device that will monitor lumbar and core muscle activity during rehabilitation exercises for an extended period to decrease cost and time commitment for the average person in treatment. A lumbar support brace was designed to measure muscle activity using EMG sensors and is outputted visually on a computer for the user to monitor their muscle activation.
