Week 2 _ The Re in Research

Duplicated making polymer and peptide with mentor. Now that supplies are more available, I starting making hydrogels of varied concentrations of polymer and peptide. First polymer hydrogel was too fluid to gel so to crosslink into gel. Next week will try a higher concentration of polymer. Did have success with the concentrations of K2 peptide hydrogels.  Met mentor on Saturday to run two of my peptide hydrogels on the Rheometer.  I even managed to take a one hour PD course online while data was being acquired. Next week will be busy as I am getting more independent with preparing hydrogels and running Rheometer. next week  I have to learn how to analyze data. z
