Laith AlHussein

Laith Alhussein is a senior majoring in Bioengineering at George Mason University. Although he has wide academic interests, he particularly enjoys math and neuroscience. He has various research experience investigating sensorimotor integration and analyzing planetary and atmospheric processes. His skills include signal and quantitative analysis, experimental design, circuit design, 3D printing, and being the heart of social gatherings. After graduation, he hopes to continue his education and eventually make a tangible impact on improving human healthcare. He also despises sarcasm.

Kathryn Radom

Presently, Kathryn Radom is a senior Bioengineering major at George Mason University. Through the Naval Research Enterprise Internship Program (NREIP), she interned at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL). She worked on a tissue engineering project to develop artificial blood vessels by utilizing hydrodynamics in microfluidic devices, which resulted in a scientific publication in RSC Advances. Kathryn was also accepted into the NOAA Ernest F. Hollings Scholarship Program, including an internship at the Hollings Marine Laboratory (HML). While at HML, she developed a management tool using Matlab to map animal health data. After graduating in the spring, she would like to continue working with NOAA and saving the dolphins.

David Remer

David Remer is a senior in Bioengineering at George Mason.  His past research experiences include micro/nanoparticle electrokinetics, EEG wavelet decomposition, and the initial stages of a transcranial direct current stimulation experiment.  His abilities include but are not limited to mechanical design, circuitry, 3d printing, technical leadership, and comic relief.  David plans to pursue a graduate degree in Translational Science next year.  In his (very limited) free time, he loves commuting to school via bicycle, rebuilding engines, and obsessing over aviation.

Mohamed Ali

Mohamed Ali is currently an undergraduate student at George Mason University majoring in Bioengineering. He has recently completed a research internship at the Sheikh Zayed Institute for Pediatrics Surgical Innovation as part of Children’s National Medical Center. He worked with both doctors and engineers on a signal processing project measuring heart sonority. Additionally, Mohamed completed the Inova Neuroscience Internship where he worked with neurosurgeons on a clinical study that investigated the influence of operation timing on surgical outcomes. Lastly, Mohamed volunteered as an Emergency Medical Technician in the Sterling Volunteer Rescue Squad where he had hands on experience with treating medical/trauma patients. Mohamed is passionate about patient care and developing new technologies that assist physicians. ​He has had no exposure to the Star Wars universe, but is  attempting to acquire the grip force.
