My Experience in the Laidlaw Research Project
Through this project, I aim to fill the gaps overlooked in current sustainability communication so that public awareness regarding the urgency for sustainability can be significantly heightened.
Research Reflection: How metabolic resources are applied to human fetuses and how this applies to sleep
This post summarises what I have done and learned during my 6-week summer research.
Research Summer Reflection
With no previous experience in academic research, this summer gave me a first-hand insight into this field. I had two main takeaways from this summer:
Project Outline: Metabolic Economies of the Human Fetus in the Presence of Pathological Constraints: Understanding Adaptations which Protect Developmental Health
This research project would focus on mathematically quantifying the brain-sparing effect: when blood flow is directed to the brain for maintaining vital functions for survival under fetal growth restriction.
