All of the research that I do is in the field of Medical Physics. It’s an area of Physics that isn’t really that well known to the public, however it‘s an area of Physics that I thoroughly enjoy working in :) I’m currently working on an MRI imaging/spectroscopy methodology to assess bone health in patients suffering from spinal metastases.
What did you think of your internship?
I agree, Quantum Mechanics is a really fascinating area of physics and it is truly mind boggling at first. The uncertainty principle, quantum tunnelling, “spooky-action” at a distance etc, etc, all sounds COMPLETELY crazy at first. But the more you study it, the more you realise that as crazy as it sounds, this is the word that we live in. I do find that QM really does change your perception of reality, however, I wouldn’t worry too much about sounding crazy, you would probably leave more people fascinated than thinking you’re crazy if you talk to them about it, so talk-on :P
