Biographical Sketch
Cassandra received her B.S. in Biological Engineering from Cornell University in May 2009. Her work at Cornell centered on the optimization of DNA biosensor aimed at detecting Cryptosporidium in water supplies. This protozoan is highly resistant to conventional forms of sterilizing water, such as chlorination, thus necessitating a quick, cost-effective method of detection in water supplies.
Cassandra is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering. Her research is focused around imaging in tissue engineering scaffolds.
