Friday involved a great deal of computer checking in order to rid our lab of extra computers, keyboards, mice, etc. While I was checking each device, which took a long time, I also went down outside the building to spray paint tubes for an optics lab that will be coming up. Although Maria joked about the fact that I have not been able to start the project I came here to work on (ultrasound research) , I have still enjoyed the variety of tasks I am completing. Also, it is impressive how optimistic and flexible all my co-workers remain through frustrating setbacks. This flexibility has made this internship work enjoyable and more efficient.
After all the computer work was done, I went over to the Color Science Building to help with an eye-tracking research project that a grad student is doing. For 45 minutes I looked at and analyzed images to see which of the two was more "glossy." This was fun and interesting. Experiences like this have led me to think outside the box and look at the simply things in my life as complex scientific concepts.
