Lee (\u201924 BS Data Science) took the top prize at the campuswide undergraduate research poster competition last year for her project examining grip strength as a potential indicator of age-related frailty and overall health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By applying machine learning algorithms, Lee analyzed factors like age, height, race, and sex to uncover meaningful patterns in grip strength data. Her findings aim to help doctors better understand patient health and create more personalized treatment plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The joint BS in Data Science program is a collaboration between the College of Engineering & Applied Science and the College of Letters & Science. Read more about her project and what comes next for Lee here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
