“I was fortunate to be selected as a member of the GW Nanotechnology Fellowship Program, where we were trained on different nanotechnology tools and manufacturing techniques. During the second half of the summer, I worked at Oak Ridge National Laboratory continuing the additive manufacturing research I had started in the nanotechnology program, [and] I presented my nanotechnology research at PhysCon in San Francisco in the fall.”
