This week I spent some time working on a grant for a collaboration with Dr. Rodeo's lab. I really enjoyed working on figuring out how I could connect my project back in Ithaca to translational studies that can be done in Dr. Rodeo's lab, with his access to human samples. Additionally, I finally got to meet Dr. Rodeo during the lab meeting and hear ways I could potentially help on other projects within the lab. I also attended the Biomechanics meeting again this week, which was a talk given by Japheth Omonira in the Itai Cohen lab on creating a model for shear forces in cartilage. With the lab I also attended HSS's first Eid ul-Adha celebration and got to meet a variety of workers within HSS. In terms of research, I have begun examining the RNA Seq data to compare the differentially regulated genes across conditions after completing some background reading to understand how to examine the data. I have also contacted the schedule managers of Dr. Rodeo and Dr. Eliasberg and will be shadowing Dr. Eliasberg next week. Finally, I will also be shadowing some mouse shoulder impingement surgeries next week, which allow me to see the way a different lab induces tendinopathy.
