Introduction!

Hello there!


My name is Tudor. Yes, like the English Dynasty (and no, I was not named after them).

For the next twelve weeks I will be working on my Senior Research Project (SRP), which I have dedicated to wound healing. I will be focusing this project and blog on the latest research behind this issue. Now, wound healing in itself is a very broad topic, which leaves a lot of room to explore. But the truth of the matter is that key problems, such as sustainability and efficiency, lead the focus while also opening new doors to the unknown. For example, skin grafts require a donor. This means that the skin, in lack of a better phrase, has been used. Not only this, but finding a donor is also a problem. As is usual for any progress, someone asked "isn't there a better way?" And voilà, we have a need for research!

This research will be taking place at Northern Arizona University and at Northern Arizona Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology (NACET). I am super grateful to be working alongside Dr. Robert Kellar and his students. I am also grateful for the guidance and support that my on campus advisors, Ms. Alicia Vaughan and Ms. Lisa McDonough, will provide me.

Now let's science the heck out of this!
