The Sandusky Lab is run by George E. Sandusky, a Senior Research Professor of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, and his interns. It is a high-powered pathology lab. It is also considered a dry lab because we do not work with specimens, just the samples from the wet lab. This lab conducts clinical research in breast, lung, esophageal, and colon cancers. 

This year, I've been a valuable part of the team, mainly working on handling samples, organizing data in Excel, and understanding pathology information. At first, I focused on doing tasks like scanning samples and managing data. But as I got better at it, I started helping others and suggesting ways to improve our work. My ability to adapt and learn quickly helped me become a more supportive team member. 

My time in the lab has taught me a lot, not just about the lab work itself, but also about how to manage my time, communicate better, and solve problems. I've also learned more about what I'm good at and where I can improve in my career. 

My work has made a big difference in our lab's success. By keeping things organized and understanding pathology data, I've helped us make better decisions and move our research forward. Learning about different parts of pathology has also made our team stronger. Also, working with different people in the lab has taught me a lot. Hearing their ideas and experiences has helped me think about things in new ways and come up with better solutions to our problems. It's made our team more creative and better at working together.
