Today was the first day of WEP. As I am working remotely, this morning, I had a Teams call with my host, Dr. Karmakar. After a quick introduction and some technical difficulties resulting in us turning off our cameras, Dr. Karmakar spoke about the basics of operations research and optimization and how they help people with real-world problems. Then, she explained her plan for me in the upcoming weeks, starting with setting up a demo presentation in biomanufacturing. To help prepare this pitch, today, Dr. Karmakar had me research biomanufacturing applications and processes, along with identifying challenges in the field. I will present my research to her tomorrow morning at our next meeting.
