  mentoring_philosophy: 'As a former recipient of the university undergraduate research mentor award (2018) I like to think of myself as a strong mentor. Mentoring is something that comes naturally to me and I greatly enjoy it. My mentoring philosophy is to expose students to as many opportunities within research as possible through my multiple labs, grants, and research projects so that they too, may take advantage of those opportunities to launch them into their careers with the most potential and in the most successful ways possible. I routinely send UROP students to conferences to present their work, hire them as full time undergraduate research assistants at the conclusion of the UROP program, and stay in touch with them well into their careers, even collaborating on peer-reviewed published research to this day. Facilitating and observing a student''s passion for their subject area via hands-on research is a privilege that I value and work to cultivate in my lab environment.'

  overall_research_project_description: 'Join Dr. Meredith McQuerry''s research team in the ThermaNOLE Comfort Lab and Textile Testing Laboratory (located in William Johnston Building) to evaluate current state-of-the-art performance technologies in firefighter, athlete, military, and other occupational fields. Home to the only dynamic sweating thermal manikin (ANDI) at a public institution in the Western Hemisphere, the ThermaNOLE Comfort Lab evaluates how textiles/clothing impact human heat loss, thermoregulation, and other physiological responses. The lab team also routinely conducts human wear trials of firefighting and other PPE. Students this fall and spring may have a unique opportunity to be part of a federally funded project to study the performance of firefighting PPE specifically for women in the fire service. '
