Partnering with Weill Cornell and Cornell University to develop a neuromorphic sensory system to detect the presence of peanut in food. Assisted data collection with olfactory based sensors, shadowed peanut identification tests with 50 Weill Cornell employees, and wrote a Clinical Letter for the International Forum of Allergy and Rhinology to prove the need for this device. Learned IRB and grant application processes, research methods, and enhanced my interest in science research and development.
