So I found out that people here don't keep track of the weeks here! At Berkeley, 15-week long semesters make keeping track of time too much of a hassle!

Last week was career fair week. Passed up resumes, landed some interviews, and the job hunt continues! I'm learning about new companies out there every week it seems!

I've also been placed into my capstone design team, where I'll be working in the Dan Fletcher Lab on a medical imaging platform interfacing iOS with the web. 

The UCSF quarter has finally began! Things were kicked off with Health Care finance this morning, bright and early at 9 AM. Got to have a delicious lunch with high school buddy Scott at Clinkle afterwards.

In my "anti-med" class we had a talk from Anvita Health CEO 
Ahmed F. Ghouri about how his company is developing data analytics tools with Hadoop to crunch billions of data points in order to identify misdiagnoses, unsafe prescriptions, and at-risk of based on  medication compliance, patient history, and eventually genetics. Fascinating stuff! Anvita was also recently acquired by medical insurance giant Humana.

In embedded systems, I've formed a project team! We're looking into making a motion tracking wristband that can connect to and control basic functions on a computer using Bluetooth Low Energy. As always, more to come!
