We have positions open during the summer and for Fall 2024. SEAL is a great place to get involved in campus research and design new technologies that help our local community. We provide an extensive online training program for our students to help them participate in campus research. Strong students are given opportunities to publish their work, win international-grade research awards, join or create start-up companies, and receive letters of recommendation for graduate school or career advancement. Many of our students transition into paid positions based on their performance. Students are expected to commit 10 to 15 hours per week. Hours are flexible and can include telecommuting, evenings, or weekends. Project availability changes depending on student interests and lab needs. Highlighted projects are listed below: * UW IAC - Sustainability and Energy Efficiency: The UW IAC offers real-world experience to students interested in learning about energy management and efficiency (link to website). Students will be given hands-on experience working with manufacturers in the Pacific Northwest. Topics include energy savings, waste reduction, sustainable practices, industrial processes, energy assessment procedures, cybersecurity screenings, smart manufacturing, sustainability, resiliency planning, decarbonization, and electrification. You do not need to be experienced to apply, as interested students will be given extensive training on these topics. * SINEW Mask: This research aims to design a new type of face mask that does not come in contact with the skin of the wearer's face. The design matches the comfort of a well-fit bicycle helmet or a pair of glasses while providing the wearer with better safety than industry alternatives. The design is reusable, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly. * Propulsion: This research aims to design a new type of thruster for aircraft propulsion. This effort will result in a new generation of ultra-quiet unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). * Biomedical (Stoma) Monitoring: This research aims to design a 3D imaging tool that can scan and inspect stomas to improve appliance fit and ostomate quality of life. Positions are open for biology and pre-med students. * Operatory Monitoring: This research aims to design a comprehensive methodology for acquiring information on the spatial and temporal distribution of aerosols in a dental or medical office environment. Dental and medical professionals are at risk of exposure to harmful particulate matter when performing routine procedures. Using a network of low-cost, IoT-enabled particulate matter sensors can help keep dental and medical professionals safe. * Gamification AI/AR/VR Software: This research aims to design scripts, software, and applications for the lab and for externals. This effort seeks students interested in WebDev, coding, and scripting. As an example of one of our apps, the ECoS team designs a technical writing assistance software tool to help writers and editors develop manuscripts.

Location Teleworking and SAFS, University of Washington, Seattle. Most of the project can be done remotely as the photos will be uploaded to a website for access. Project Description To assess the habitat provided by a wastewater outfall pipe, King County placed settling plates at 4 locations (-100t, -300, & -600 ft depths) next to the outfall and at a -600 ft reference site. The plates remained in place for 2, 5, and 10 years. The goal of this project is to assess whether the pipe provided useful habitat for marine organisms, and if organisms near the outfall were similar at the reference site. In total, there are 880 photos available for analysis, with a minimum of 320 photos that need to be analyzed. An important element of quality control will come from having multiple people extract numbers from the same plate. The data can be subjected to numerous analyses, with students having the opportunity to pose their own questions (e.g. differences among depths, years, and outfall versus the reference location). Part of this work will entail producing a concise final project report written by the students. and the writing of a journal article for publication is encouraged. Students will also have the opportunity to present their work on this project to King County staff. Timing & Salary NOW until completion (or end of 2024). Salary is $23/hour. Students must not yet have graduated, and may not work within UW more than 19.5 hours per week. Requirements & How to Apply Students doing photo analyses need to have taken an Invertebrate Zoology course, preferably one that studied local species. Photo analysts need to be detail oriented, able to do computer work for substantial periods of time, and have access to a computer with a large color monitor. The project also needs students adept in data analysis and creating data graphs, and students adept at data interpretation and scientific writing. The primary need at this time is for photoanalysts. If interested, please send the following to mdethier@uw.edu by July 1, 2024: 1. A current transcript (unofficial is fine); 2. A paragraph about why you are interested in the job. This work will start ASAP but will continue into Autumn Quarter -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

For one of my projects I am recruiting students to help with game camera photo processing, to be conducted over the summer and into Fall Quarter. This is a remote volunteer position for students looking to get more research experience. Thank you so much, Eve Hallock -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
