This picture comes from my engineering group’s Lab on a Chip analysis video. We had to design, test and analyze a portable chip to test the concentration of fluorescein in a mixture of water and fluorescein. This is used to detect the outbreak of dry eye syndrome which, when caught early, is easily treatable.
This project was related to the STEM scholar’s GOALS, specifically to Academic Enrichment and Original Inquiry. Throughout the project, the team was required to come up with original and creative ideas to improve the data readings from the chip. The team was also tasked with coming up with insightful and meaningful analyses about the efficiency of the chip. I learned how to make meaningful and insightful analyses on technical documents.
