Welcome to my wiki! I am a first-year PhD student at Tufts University studying Human-Computer Interaction. I'm interested in how next-generation interaction techniques can support research through enhanced brainstorming and within-group collaboration. Lead by Dr. Orit Shaer of the Wellesley College HCI laboratory and Dr. Douglas Densmore of the SynBio laboratory at Boston University, I am the Wellesley student mentor for the development and engineering of multi-touch and tangible interaction software and tools.

Bootcamp

05.31 - 06.03 : This is week 1 of our work towards the International Genetically Engineered Machine competition in synthetic biology. We have a lot of excitement, but a lack of experience. Thus the BU team leaders have put together a bio bootcamp to take everyone bio 101, software support, and outreach opportunities in three days.

Technology Tour

Tuesday, we welcomed our three newest members - Kelsey, Casey, and Kathy - to the HCI laboratory with a tour of the technology and tools. New students and current iPhone programmers worked on "Hello World", Microsoft Surface style. Kathy, our resident bio-enthusiast and expert, started a survey of state-of-the-art genomics tools and molecular infographics.

Bio Basics

Wednesday began the BU-Wellesley iGEM bootcamp.
