Week 12 Blog!

Hi everyone, this week, Clare introduced LaTex to me. LaTeX is a typesetting system commonly used for technical and scientific documents such as academic papers. It's prevalent in mathematics, computer science, engineering, and physics. LaTeX allows users to focus on the content of their documents without worrying too much about formatting, as it separates the content from the layout. It uses markup commands to define the document's structure, such as sections, chapters, equations, tables, and references. LaTeX then compiles these commands into a beautifully formatted PDF document. It's known for its high-quality typesetting of mathematical equations and complex documents. I have been fiddling around with it, and it is pretty cool. I attached a pic so you guys can take a look! 

Take care!

  Hello everyone!! This week, I worked with Josh in the lab, learning how to access Google Colabs and looking into learning Python as a programming language in Google Colabs as well. As part of my internship, I will try to learn how to code in Python by finding online tutorials or exercises. If someone in this group knows of any good and helpful web pages for me, please let me know since I am still searching for some. I am excited to try and learn Python independently since it is a skill I will significantly benefit from. I will inform you about my progress and post some learning exercises here. Have a great rest of your week!!

  Hi everyone! This semester, I will learn a little about Python as a programming language and work with Microsoft Azure; & I will also do some of the things I did in the previous semester, which is plating the bacteria and taking pictures of the colonies. I am excited, & nervous at the same time to start this new semester. Last semester was challenging because I was a full-time student and worked an average of 30 to 40 hours at Costco. I am in the same boat this semester, so I am nervous, but I did well in all my classes last semester, so I am confident that I can do it again this semester. I hope everyone has an excellent first week of school!

 Hi everyone,  Today in the lab, I had to get several more samples of two bacteria under my gram-positive cocci: Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and Enterococcus faecalis (EF). I did three plates for each bacteria to be put in the incubator with no temp and three other samples of each bacteria to be placed in the incubator at 37 degrees. I uploaded photos of bacteria to the teachable machine as well. I had to learn to use this machine using images for gram-positive bacilli since I still don't have any for my gram-positive cocci. Hopefully, this week I will get some photos of colony formations for the samples I placed today so I can upload them into the machine learning.
