Week 11: Certain and Safe
Hello everyone!
This week 11 blog post marks the end of the senior project journey for 2025. I’ve finished my powerpoint and my proposal document and am pretty much planning to revise and practice both until they’re burned into my retinas.
Special thanks to everyone who’s commented on my blogs, seniors and freshman alike. I’ve really enjoyed answering your questions and even getting insight from the different ideas you guys have thought of. Also, thank you to my site placement at the ASU Health Observatory, from Mary Barreras who set up all of my meetings and let me use her pink desk to Dr. E and all of his team. Thank you so much to Dr. George Poste and Rachel Levinson who let an 18 year old pick their brains about something they’ve been talking about for decades. Thank you to Mrs. Sow my faculty advisor who’s read my 12 page proposal more than she logically should have to. Finally, thank you to my dad for watching me stare at my computer for hours on end just so he could sign off on my weekly timesheet (And thank you to that week where I did 25 hours of panic research because I realized I didn’t know what the ISU was. You will be missed).
This project was honestly really enjoyable and I feel confident that I’ve come to a conclusion I can be proud of. If you want to see the full presentation, or look at my recreation of a CRISPR/Cas-9 complex out of pom poms, I will be presenting alongside my classmates on May 3rd. As a sort-of-former theatre kid, I don’t generally wish people luck, so instead I’ll just hope I break a leg.
Thanks so much for reading, especially everyone who’s been here since week 0. I hope you have wonderful summers and lives and to the freshman who read this, make sure you find your senior project as fun as I did and don’t stress too much about APs. Bye!
