Sri from South Windsor High School, CT

Congratulations to our student Sri S. for publishing his first ever paper titled “Ending The Opioid Abuse Epidemic Among Construction Workers Through NSAID Therapy and Genetic Screening for CYP2C9 Genetic Variants.” This exceptional research and literature review article was published by Curieux Academic Journal. The paper can be accessed via the following link - November 2022 (curieuxacademicjournal.com)

Sri wishes to pursue Bio-Medical Engineering and is awaiting replies from top universities. The team at Center for DNA-Guided Medicine stands by his success and hard work as he enters the next level in his career.

Below is his testimonial.

This program piqued my interest in the laboratory and technological side of science and medicine. It changed my perception that laboratory science would be boring and repetitive. In fact, I found it quite interesting. However, I recognize that one must have a strong passion to enter the field of science. Having small groups and highly motivated and knowledgeable instructors increased the amount of personal attention, allowing us to gain thorough knowledge and dive further into our specific areas of interest. I now want to choose a college courseload that has an emphasis on research and its technological and clinical applications. This program would help me convey a strong interest in science and a research mindset because I am now able to discuss the technicalities of research and development in a more guided and advanced manner. Overall, I am quite pleased that I was able to get such a personalized, in-depth experience. The laboratory techniques I have learned provided me with the basic skills necessary to be competent in biological laboratories. I felt that learning how to operate biotechnology was the most useful and interesting experience, as technology is rapidly evolving and becoming increasingly prevalent in the field of medical research. Learning about the medical research progress is extremely important even for those who are more interested in the clinical side, so I would recommend this program to anyone passionate about biology, medicine, and research. If I am still in the Northeast for college, then I will definitely keep in touch with the Center for DNA-Guided Medicine.
