Margaret Murdoch ’24, a biology and religious studies major with a minor in gender and sexuality studies, spent their summer in Seattle alongside some of the nation’s best scientists. Experimenting, analyzing, and observing at Fred Hutch Cancer Center , they were able to assist in…
experiments. Each day, I would either write up a new lab protocol, attempt to replicate a previous experiment’s results, or analyze data. I usually stayed until around 7 p.m., then collected my things, and biked home. When I started, I did one day of online lab safety training and then moved into shadowing for a few days. By the end of my first week, I had been given multiple lines of MOLM-13 acute myeloid leukemia cells. During my second week, I was preparing and running an assay to measure senescence in

concerned about those missing from classrooms. She wrote a paper on why students of color might leave school and college. Pierce-Ngo assisted in coordinating the Students of Color Retreat and encouraged more peer support. "I’m proud of the work we have done in supporting students, long-term. Data shows that the program works, too. Thanks to the unique one-on-one support model, the students were three times more likely to pursue post-secondary education."- Angela Pierce-Ngo '12 But she found her true

itself around a predefined path. Utilizing a LiDAR laser scanner to observe the car’s environment, we generate a map and algorithmically guide the car through the racecourse. We utilize ROS (Robot Operating System) packages as a means to integrate our LiDAR laser scan data with the Hector SLAM (Simultaneously Localisation and Mapping) algorithm to simultaneously localize and map the location of the RC car. Using these maps, we implement our path planning algorithm (pure pursuit) and machine learning

More importantly, I’m using Rails to design a little piece of software that scrapes data from social media sites using the hashtag as a search tool. Want to see all the Facebook photos tagged with #PacificLutheran or #PLU? This software can do it. Want to read every tweet that makes reference to #election2016? This software can do that too. I

opportunity to stay on as long he, and the bank, felt like he was contributing. Whitney plans to stay through graduation – after that, maybe it’ll turn into a job. Whitney sees his internship as a practical application of what he’s learning in business school. He does a lot of number-crunching and reviews a lot of raw financial data. He also checks financial portfolios to make sure they are compliant – for example, if a client doesn’t want a stock portfolio that includes tobacco companies, he makes sure
