Richard "Doc" Kieft Summer Research

Advisor: Dr. Audra Goach Sostarecz

  • Summer 2018
  • Used Langmuir Trough to study the effects of divalent metal cations on insulin aggregation
  • Studied insulin’s interactions with lipids commonly found in the cell membrane
  • Worked with other research members to begin construction of a fluorescence microscope
  • Used Python to create a Graphical User Interface for data processing programs

Coffee Project

  • Analyzed aromatic molecules in roasted coffee using GC-MS

Classes

Advanced Physical Chemistry

Events

Bettendorf Jr. High School STEM Expo:

  • Setup 3D printers(Ceramic, FDM, and SLA) to demonstrate the creation of 3D elements
  • This also inlcuded a Coffee station, 2D to 3D paper folding station, and a drone station

Setting Up the Raspberry Pi

  • The operating system of the RPi(Raspbian) was setup and the instruction can be found at the following link:
