Some cardiac muscle diseases, like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), occur due to genetic mutations that regulate function. This project will analyze how different mutations affect sarcomere assembly/growth. The main goal of this project is to quantify sarcomere assembly using an AI software that assesses multilevel structures and functions of sarcomeres and cardiomyocytes.' please_add_any_additional_information_here: '' please_provide_a_link_to_your_publications_a_video_clip_or_a_web: 'https://solislab.create.fsu.edu/ https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=1YgAo_sAAAAJ' please_select_the_choice_that_most_accurately_describes_your_exp: 'Partially Remote' please_select_the_location_of_your_project_: 'On FSU Main Campus' position_availability_for_student_research: 'Flexible schedule' position_title: 'Graduate Student' primary_research_mentor_name: 'Rhiannon Crawford' project_keywords: 'Bioengineering and biomedical engineering, Computational Science, Biological Sciences, Sarcomeric proteins' relevant_student_major_s_: 'Computational biology, engineering, biomedical engineering, computer science' research_mentor_preferred_pronoun2: '' research_mentor_pronouns: She/her research_mentor_supervisor_if_different_from_above_: '' research_tasks_for_student_research_assistant_s_: 'Literature review, data collection and analysis (coding, programming data), statistical analysis, graph-making' roundtable_times_and_zoom_links: N/A skills_that_research_assistants_may_need_: 'Good computer skills and experience with statistical analysis.
