Projects

Primary Project (Senior Project): With guidance from Dr. Siewerdsen of Johns Hopkins University and advising from Dr. Aamodt of Walla Walla University, I plan to create an algorithm in Matlab which will segment and analyze 3D cone-beam CT images of the hand -- the overall goal is to be able to identify different joint diseases of the hand (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, etc.).

Secondary Project: I plan to repair/rebuild an Atari so that it will use up-to-date electronics (e.g. power supply, etc.). This is purely for the experience of working with electronics.
