Location: Milan, Italy
Organization: Humanitas University
Rosanna spent eight weeks at Humanitas University in Milan, Italy working in the lab of Marinos Kallikourdis. Her research focused on studying the inflammatory markers in both the brain and heart in a mouse model of heart failure and in aging mice. She was responsible for the statistical analysis of data, including comparisons between the experimental and control groups of each model and correlating inflammatory makers with the behavioral and echocardiogram outcomes. During her experience, she was able to learn how to perform PCR and how to culture cells with sterile technique, while she also expanded her comfort level with statistical software.
