Week 4 – Mahmoud Masoud

Hello everyone,

This week was the most uneventful thus far for me since I got sick. In the days I was in the lab, I worked on creating many cells for testing, and they will hopefully show great results in the data. I have been sick since Wednesday, and on the days that I could not go to the lab, I analyzed my data remotely and kept up with how my batteries were holding up. Our data-collection program is beneficial since I can work from home on such days. I also spent time working on the presentation for Monday, as well as reading some scientific articles I found regarding my research. Unfortunately, they are outdated and will not help much in my lab work. This was expected, however, since the research being done in my lab is hoping for better results than past cathode mixtures. I am sad that I could not attend the field trip, but staying safe and avoiding the spreading of the illness is more important.

I hope to start going to the lab again on Monday, and I am looking forward to better results and data sets!
