Agent-based modeling for muscle regeneration

Published: September 13, 2018

This talk was given for the Muscle Forum at the University of Kentucky in September of 2018. I spoke about work that I did over the summer of 2018 concerning modeling skeletal muscle genesis and growth using agent-based modeling. The aim was to create a simulation that could model the relationship between myoblasts, muscle fibers, myofibrils, and nuclei in order to gain more insight about the growth of muscle fibers from the time of their generation due to the fusion of myoblasts.

A Mean Shift-Based Pattern Formation Algorithm for Robot Swarms

Published: February 05, 2021

This is a presentation I gave virtually at ICARA 2021 that investigates a new method for the assembly of global patterns in a multi-robot swarm following basic mean-shift based formation rules.

UTA (Computer Organization)

Teaching Assistant, University of Kentucky, Comp. Eng., 2020

I worked as an undergraduate teaching assistant for a Computer Organization class during the fall of 2020. This involved modifying prior assignments and answering student questions about concepts, projects, and homework during office hours. The class material dealt with the MIPS assembly language and datapath as well as concepts related to memory and caching.

GTA (Computer Organization)

Teaching Assistant, Virginia Tech, Comp. Sci., 2021

I worked as an graduate teaching assistant for an Intro to Computer Organization class during the fall of 2021. This involved grading student assignments and exams and answering student questions about concepts, projects, and homework during office hours (10 hr./week). The class material dealt with the MIPS assembly language and datapath as well as concepts related to memory and caching.

GTA (Computer Organization)

Teaching Assistant, Virginia Tech, Comp. Sci., 2022

I worked as an graduate teaching assistant for an Intro to Computer Organization class during the fall of 2021. This involved grading student assignments and answering student questions about concepts, projects, and homework during office hours (4 hr./week). The class material dealt with the MIPS assembly language and datapath as well as concepts related to memory and caching.
