  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    The ideal undergraduate research project  (i) helps the student learn some valuable new technique/skill that they can add to their toolkit, (ii) has a clear "finish" criterion that is achieveable within the available time-frame, (iii) helps the researcher solve a problem they care about, and (iv) if possible helps the community at large. I think this project has all these elements.

    Over time, I've found that mentoring is a calibration exercise, and different strategies work with different projects/students. For this project, I am looking for a  student who can take charge. They will be able to watch a Youtube video, adapt and implement it for the project, and discuss options/impediments with the mentor as they arise.

  overall_research_project_description: 'pyReSpect is a popular python program to infer the relaxation spectrum from viscoelastic data. Currently it only has a command line interface (CLI), which limits its appeal to experimentalists who prefer interacting via a graphical user interface (GUI). The goal of this project is to design and develop a GUI using python libraries (Tkinter or Qt), and to generate standalone executable/binary files for distribution across different platforms (Windows, Mac, and Linux).'
