• Developed stability and control parameters, and synthesized findings in a detailed report complemented by OpenVSP-generated aircraft drawings

• Provided one-on-one mathematics, also physics instruction for college entrance examination candidates.

• Utilized FE analysis to simulate frontal head impacts, constructing skull and brain meshes with 3D Slicer using present MRI data.
• Evaluated mesh biofidelity and computational efficiency with ParaView, optimizing mesh precision and computation time for accurate trauma representation.
• Applied LS-Prepost and LS-DYNA for dynamic simulations, assessing helmet protective mechanisms by varying helmet parameters.

• Analyzing artifacts and extracting spectral features, compared preprocessing methods
• Implemented machine learning classifiers (KNN, SVM, Neural Networks) for sleep stage differentiation
• Culminating in identification and validation of optimal feature extraction algorithms through statistical analysis and confusion matrix evaluations.

• Analyzed problems and worked with teams to develop solutions.
• Participated in workshops and presentations related to projects to gain knowledge.
• Completed research, compiled data, updated spreadsheets, and produced timely reports.

Researched on the Establishment of Drosophila Model of Maternal Behavior;

• Studied the oviposition selection of Drosophila melanogaster and explored the molecular and neural mechanisms of protecting their offspring;
• Concluded that female Drosophila have oviposition preference after evaluating environmental factors and integrating environmental cues, and this oviposition preference is inherent rather than acquired through learning or mating;
• Participated in the whole research and be rated as Excellent in the defense of paper.

• Learned experimental methods and ways of analyzing academic papers;
• Read a series of selected neurobiology papers, summarized research methods, logic, and conclusions;
• Participated in group meetings and academic conferences and built big picture of research methods.
