June 3rd - Summer Research Begins!

Looking forward to an interesting and exciting summer! These past few days I have been organizing and gathering background information by reading scientific papers so I can begin research soon. Today we ran standard samples through the ICP-AES to learn how the machine works as well as determine the precision of our standards. Hopefully later this week I will be able to run some samples through the ICP-AES and begin to look at ion binding competition in DNA-arrays!
