Hello! This is my second week at the University of Houston studying chemistry, and this week went by incredibly fast compared to last week. While, most of this week was waiting on our solution to filter and our glassware to be cleaned for more prep,...
Hello everybody! My name is Brooke Duncan and I am a summer 2023 Pintern from Telluride, Colorado. To put it simply, this past week has been a whirlwind of new and exciting information. As it turns out, I am fortunate enough to be staying in...
My name is Rose Kirk-Landry and I am interning in environmental engineering at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. This week I worked on some coding and building temperature sensors. The current goal for the rest of my time here is to make...
This was an exciting week for me in the shop. I made a lot of progress on several different projects. My first task this week was to continue work on building the test bed for the rocket motor for my mentor’s Intro to Rocketry class....

I am Baen Tougher and I am spending my summer in Boulder Colorado, at The Center for Aerospace and Astronomy. I will be working with The Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics for the next 6 weeks. There I will be working with another Pintern,...
I’m Tiffany Wu, and I’m spending my summer in Texas at the University of Houston studying chemistry. I have been given the incredible opportunity to work with Professor Baldelli and his lab group researching electrochemistry. For my project, I am working with Saida Holder,...
Hello! My name is Saida Holder, and I will be attending the University of Houston for the next six weeks! I attend Olathe High School in Olathe, Colorado, and flying all the way out to another state (a city at that) is incredibly exciting! After...
My name is Rose Kirk-Landry and I am interning in environmental engineering at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. During the next six weeks, I will be working on building and programming atmospheric carbon dioxide sensors with an intern from another program, some...
I’m TJ Neumann, and this summer, I am working in the CU Boulder Aerospace Machine Shop, where I am learning from several expert machinists on how to fabricate, design, and build advanced parts. I am learning how to use many different machines, including, but not...

This week I learned how to read an x-ray. I can identify each organ. I learned the difference between an x-ray, ct, and many different tests. I learned about what chemo is and how to do patient exams. I saw an orthopedic surgery where they...
This week I got a taste for different specialties like general. I saw two hernia repairs one endoscopic and one open. A closed procedure is sometimes preferable but it depends on the severity of the tear. The open hernia repair was much worse it had...
This week was very informative. I learned a lot, like how to read a Coronary angiogram. This is where a catheter is inserted into a major artery and threaded through the vessels to the heart. A dye is inserted and x-ray machines can see the...
Last week of my internship, I gave a presentation to some undergraduate students as well as some doctoral students to show them my research methods and the process before handing the project over to them. The presentation was moved up to Monday when is supposed...
