Project Description
The BEEM Lab is currently developing novel techniques to improve space farming and crop germination in microgravity environments. We are seeking an undergraduate researcher to assist with experiment preparation, material fabrication, and constructing a system for seed germination data collection. The student would also help to develop an optical sensor to detect color changes for carbon sequestration sensors for the USDA. Experience working in a wet lab and with LabVIEW, Python, or other such programs are preferred but can be taught.
