EXPERIENCE WITH RESEARCH
I began research this school year at OSU and Nationwide. As a pre-med student, having research experience is vital when preparing for medical school, especially when in a clinical setting. For my research at OSU, I work under the Department of Urology to study implicit biases in healthcare and how to combat it in the future. This includes going into free clinics and surveying healthcare professionals and patients to get a better sense of their perception of healthcare in Central Ohio.
For my research at Nationwide Children’s, I aid in the recruitment and consenting of patients that are eligible to be recorded for studies in infancy movement and whether further disabilities may appear in the future. I also record clips to put into a software algorithm that analyzes these videos.
