Project Highlights:

The “Shuttlebox Behavioral System” is a multi-station behavioral experiment

that tests Zebrafish reactions to light and current. My role was to develop new software, a hardware revision and expansion, update the firmware, and I also provided user documentation for the new system.

The “Eggdicator” is a computer vision system that evaluates Zebrafish embryos

at the very early stages of life. The machine replaces the task of hand sorting freshly harvested embryos. My role in the project was to design the PCB, develop the firmware for the mechanical systems, develop the GUI, and I was the Project Manager of the three student team.

The “Dechorionator” a first of its kind machine that removes the outer shell from

a Zebrafish embryo. This product is fully operational in the field at both SARL and the US

Army Center for Environmental Health Research. My role was to develop the firmware for the machine. I was also responsible for creating the final user documentation.
