Hi SSP!
My name is Shawn and I’m a rising senior from South Korea! It’s officially Day 29 of SSP and it’s honestly crazy how we’re already on our final full week of SSP! It honestly felt like yesterday when all of us flew in and now we’re preparing for the final parts of the program.
This week is definitely going to be a stressful one. For one, we have to finish our primer design and run our PCRs. This program has been a very stressful one for sure. For example, this weekend we had to finish our genome analysis using Galaxy and IGV. I miraculously managed to finish it thanks to my amazing teammates and fellow SSP participants! 🙂
I also can’t wait for our final field trip to Indiana Dunes National Park this Wednesday! It’s kinda crazy that Indiana is so far from a beach and yet we’re planning a beach day. Hopefully no one drowns 🙂↔️. Oh and here’s a picture of our Genomics program.
Today’s color was black, but some of us wore blue (including me). And then theres Jerry.
Thanks Shawn. Posting in few minutes. Got busy today.
