With this research, team members will be able to investigate how people learn with respect to a multitude of different areas including but not limited to informal science learning environments, undergraduate research, physiology, mathematical modeling, and/or learning progressions. The work for this project will include data collection, data analysis, formal manuscript writing for potential publication and submittals for professional research presentation (both internally at Student Research Week in the Spring ’24 semester and externally at appropriate regional or national conferences).

Description:
|
Pediatric parameters widely differ across age ranges and vary from those of an adult. There is no current tangible pediatric cardiovascular model that can be utilized to avoid invasive procedures and trials used in children and young adults. The purpose of this mathematical model is to adapt the adult closed loop model utilizing data collected that determined formulas relevant for predicting the responses of an adult cardiovascular system, in order to develop a clinical algebraic model reducing the need for invasive procedure on pediatric patients. |
