Research Experience:
2 years research experience working in 2 different labs ( Systems Bioengineering Lab), worked in Tissue Engineering, Systems Biology and regenerative medicine.
Publications/Abstracts/Presentations:
1st author in 2 different manuscripts ready for publication
Oral Presentation at the 7th National Conference on Biomechanics
Awards/Honors/Recognitions:
National Award for the Best Poster Presentation of an undergraduate student on Biomechanics.
Fellowships/Funding:
Nothing at all
Pertinent Activities or Jobs:
TA for 1 semester in 2 courses (Introduction in Biomedical Engineering and Principles of Biological Engineering).
RA in a variety of projects regarding cartilage regeneration
Research Interests:
Tissue Engineering, Regenerative Medicine, Stem cells, Drug Delivery

Comments: Had an interview with a Prospective PI from Purdue University, she had a phone call with one of my Referees (they Had the same PI when conducting their PhD in US so they knew each other before). Then the PI informed that she invited me at the Visiting Days 15-17 of February to meet in personal. Nextly, an official email came to me informing me about the invitation. I need your comments please. Is it worthy to go at the visiting days? What should I expect? What are my chances of being admitted??
