Courtney was my manager during my time with Medpace. I worked closely with her during the initial few months of training and became progressively more independent towards the end of training. She provided an excellent end of year employee evaluation and could vouch for my potential and abilities as a clinical research associate. DR. MERVIN YODER

I conducted research in Dr. Yoder’s lab during the summer of 2015 as a part of the Herman B Wells Center for Pediatric Research Summer Internship Program. I studied the effects of repositioned pharmaceuticals on the survivability of endothelial colony forming cells (ECFC) in 3D collagen matrices.

Dr. Berwick is an affiliate of the Kassab lab group. Before the group moved to San Diego, they were located near the IUPUI campus in the Van Nuys Medical Science Building. I was able to work with Dr. Berwick over the summer and assist him in gathering and analyzing data on a prosthetic venous valve that had been implanted into disease model canines and sought to reduce reflux blood flow.
