“Synthesized Ore Materials that are Alternatives in Nano Materialized Field Hockey Sticks”
Researched how to make field hockey sticks cheaper and stronger by substituting Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 2019
Nanomaterials with synthesized ore materials. Maximum load and yield stress
values were calculated from a three-point flexure test produced from an INSTRON
5567 machine located in the Whitaker Laboratory at Lehigh University. Field
Hockey stick prototypes were computer generated using Autodesk inventor to
simulate stress analysis of a field hockey stick under the force from which a ball
and stick would produce when hit.

“How Enzyme Deficiency Affects a Drosophila’s Ability to Metabolize Alcohol”
Compared ADH+ and ADH- Drosophila Manahawkin, New Jersey 2017
Researched how the effects of alcohol on fruit flies with different ADH levels 2017
can be used to draw parallels to how the alcohol would affect humans. Fruit flies
that were exposed to alcohol before fully developing showed signs of reduced
sensitivity as adults and had a preference towards alcohol rather than other food
sources.
