Her passion for creative problem-solving continued to grow from there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summer 2018,<\/strong> she assisted Dr. Agarwal in his lab at FIU, researching biopolymer scaffolds for arranging cardiac cells. Since it was her first time in an academic research setting, Canet gained valuable experience that prepared her well for her future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summer 2019,\u00a0<\/strong><span>Canet interned at Al-Farooq Corporation in Miami, FL. During her time there, she was focused on coding. She learned<\/span><span>\u00a0Excel Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) and created a database for the company\u2019s engineers. The database gave the company structure and organization\u00a0through a streamlined program for their calculation sheets and MATCAD files, which aids\u00a0 in their day-to-day tasks. Canet also grasped structural design knowledge regarding the effects of fluid properties through the employment of ASCE 7-10, a program that calculates wind load pressures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>She has since obtained an MS in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University and currently works as a quality engineer.She is highly interested in large-scale projects and wants to use her mechanical engineering knowledge to its fullest potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-6473 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Briana-Canet.jpg'><img width=\"636\" height=\"424\" src=\"\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Briana-Canet-636x424.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Briana-Canet-636x424.jpg 636w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Briana-Canet-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Briana-Canet-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Jordan-and-Briana-Poster.jpg'><img width=\"636\" height=\"424\" src=\"\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Jordan-and-Briana-Poster-636x424.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Jordan-and-Briana-Poster-636x424.jpg 636w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Jordan-and-Briana-Poster-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/files\/2018\/11\/Jordan-and-Briana-Poster-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"author":24547,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/6473"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24547"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/6473\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6886,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/6473\/revisions\/6886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cell-met\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
