Monday November 10, 2008

Sorry I've been out of touch. Here's a quick update: my Siemens entry was submitted in October, and I received notification on October 24th that it did not make it to the next round. Therefore, this past month has been dedicated to revising my entry in order to submit it for the Intel competition. I've made several changes in the style of the piece -- the language, I feel, should have been more scientifc, more concise. It's taken many revisions to alter the piece. The data and results are all the same, of course. It's the presentation that has been altered.

Thus, I have printed out all the entry materials for the Intel competition. There are a few essays that need to be written, and I've started to draft brief answers to them. My next priority is to have the materials signed by my mentor, Dr. Lieberman by the end of the week.

Once this research report is submitted to Intel, I can resume normal research hours at the lab. Dr. Lieberman and I have yet to decide upon the exact hours.
