ROBERT JUAN TREVINO JR.
Objective: Searching for biomedical device research position to gain valuable experience in the meticulous process of getting a product from the lab into the healthcare setting. Available after August 7th 2018. Education:
University of Texas at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX B.S. Biomedical Engineering, GPA: 3.78/4.00 highest Highest Honors and Leadership Honors Distinction
Relevant Experience:
Creation of Boundless Cart
Independent Creation August 2014-May 2016
Inventor of the “Boundless Cart” A shopping cart that is most specifically made for those that are confined to manual wheelchair. Featured in University’s newspaper and spotlighted on city’s news station.

UTSA – Guda Lab August 2017- Present
Adipose derived microvascular fragments and mesenchymal stem cells were implanted into hydroxyapatite based orthopedic scaffolds. Real Time qRT-PCR, histology, confocal microscopy, and several biological assays were used to quantify both angiogenic and orthopedic tissue growth. Submitted and accepted for Honor’s Thesis distinction at UTSA. Structural Brain Networks and Behavioral Measures of Attention in Adolescents Who Were Born Prematurely
UCSF – Xu Lab May-August 2017 Amgen Scholars Program I studied the architecture of the white matter pathways in the brain and discovering any correlations between deficiencies in the structural connectivity of brain regions and attention disorders in adolescents born prematurely in the hopes of developing diagnostic techniques. Submitted to American Journal of Neuroradiology in May 2018. The Pack and Pull Bandage
Senior Design Project August 2017- May 2018
The novel product “The Pack and Pull Bandage” can be the optimal device for treating lacerations to the skin that can cause severe hemorrhaging. This could both help prevent infections, and slow or stop bleeding providing the patient enough time to reach the clinical setting where the wound can be treated fully. This was a senior design project that was created for a senior design course.
Work Experience:
University of Texas at San Antonio
Research Assistant January 2015 – Present
Conduct research independently at a UTSA lab. Developed regenerative scaffolds using 3D Envision Bioplotter, computational model to be used by vocal fold surgical procedures and studying the angiogenic properties of microvascular fragments when placed into orthopedic scaffolds. University of California, San Francisco
Research Assistant June-August 2017
Worked with adolescents that were born prematurely to get scanned by MRI, and then worked to process and analyzing the data. Also refined MATLAB code to receive optimal resolution of diffusion tractography techniques. Tri-Service Research Laboratory, Ft. Sam Houston
Research Assistant May-August 2018
Through the Repperger Internship I am working with Dr. Ronald Barnes on biomedical imaging project that serves the interest of the Unites States Air Force using electrical engineering principles as well as simulation software. Leadership:
