+**About Me:**
+Hello! My name is Aadi Duggal, a rising junior at Winston Churchill High School. I am extremely passionate towards engineering and computer science, and am captivated to solve real world problems. Whether it's designing sustainable infrastructure, developing innovative machine learning models to analyze medical datasets or exploring the intersection of robotics and artificial intelligence, I'm deeply committed to making a positive impact through STEM. Outside of the classroom, you'll often find me programming in my free time, working on computer science and machine learning research projects, or playing video games with my friends! I'm driven by curiosity and fueled by the endless possibilities that STEM offers, and I can't wait to see where this journey takes me. 
+
+**Project/Research Interests:**
+My project research interests are mostly in machine learning and engineering. I am very interested in using different ML algorithms to develop models that can help solve real world problems. However, I'm equally drawn to the hands-on engineering aspect of bringing these solutions to life. Designing prototypes and conducting experiments to refining and implementing practical solutions would all be research projects that excite me.

+Hi! My name is Afya Shaikh and I am a freshman at Burlington High School. I’m driven by a passion for integrating AI and machine learning technologies to positively change the medical field. I aim to tackle the complexities of dermatology, oncology, and pathology by enhancing and accelerating processes and improving patient outcomes by using the ever-growing world of technology! Beyond my passion for STEM, I'm deeply involved in a range of clubs, from programming to environmental advocacy to medicine. As the secretary of my school's Student Government, I'm dedicated to building a strong sense of community among my peers. I love inspiring others, being a team leader, and advocating for causes I care about. I enjoy expressing myself through my art and using it as a powerful tool for advocacy, notably through the UNHCR Hope Away From Home Competition, where I was able to advocate for the displacement of refugees. When I’m not covered in acrylics you’ll often find me wrapped up with a good book, blanket, and hot cocoa.

+
+**About Me:**
+Warmest Greetings, My Fellow Dartmouth Medicine EDIT Researchers! My name is Alim Oraz!
+
+Coming from a multicultural and multilingual background, I’ve persevered through multidimensional adversity to discover my core strengths as a Problem Solver, Helper, and Peacemaker, always supporting all my teammates to succeed together in research projects and in sports as a soccer goalkeeper & captain and as a doubles tennis partner. Pursuing my dual passion for biomedicine/biotech and AI led to my clinical internships at Stanford Medicine and Harvard MEDScienceLAB, as well as hands-on Life Sciences & Biotech research projects with UC San Diego, Boz Life Science Research & Teaching Institute, and Scripps Research Institute in San Diego.
+
+I dedicate myself to helping kids at my local Cerebral Palsy Center and also find time to teach Math Olympiad and Chess skills through my Young Octahedron Minds (YOM) initiative, aspiring to gradually realize my long-term vision to inspire and empower disadvantaged students to pursue STEM careers through an AI-powered, Starlink-connected global STEM education platform.
+
+As a young aspiring scientist, I enjoy observing and experimenting with ant colonies and learning about the ocean dandelion as a communal superorganism. My first research projects range from exploring Nicotinamide Mononucleotide for rescuing human fertility and elderly dysregulation to developing AI/ML Models for Malaria Diagnosis and COVID-19 Genomics. Additionally, I am researching xenotransplantation for growing human organs, and exosome and microbiome biotechnologies for healthspan extension. I am also working to contribute my dual-aspect marine-to-human research to the Bioprocessing Summit and ARDD conferences.
+
+Inspired by my recent MIT BWSI Medlytics studies, I am excited about the mentorship by Professor Levy and Professor Vaickus, and working with their team of experienced mentors, clinicians, research scientists, as well as undergraduate, Master's, MD, PhD, and MD-PhD students. I am committed to progressing from the Advanced Research to Mentor track during my EDIT internships, as all EDIT research projects align perfectly with my dual aspirations for advanced learning and synergistically applying sophisticated research methodologies in biomedicine and AI to benefit real-life patients and help prevent diseases in the first place.
+
+Warmest regards,
+Alim Oraz
+
+**Project/Research Interests:**
+As a young aspiring biomedical researcher, I'd like to highlight all my 18 areas of research/project interests inspired by recent discoveries and developments:
+1. AI in personalized medicine
+2. Genomic data analysis for disease link identification
+3. Digital pathology and image analysis in diagnostics and classification of diseases
+4. Machine learning for disease risk and treatment response prediction
+5. Single-cell sequencing and multimodal data integration
+6. Exosome biomarker discovery in diseases
+7. Biomarker discovery using AI
+8. Antiaging and healthspan extension technologies
+9. Xenoharvesting technologies
+10. Exosome technologies
+11. Multiomics for complex biological systems understanding
+12. Multimodal modeling and data mining in biomedical data
+13. Multimodal data fusion for predictive modeling in genomics
+14. Deep learning for longitudinal patient data analysis
+15. Natural language processing for clinical data extraction
+16. Natural language processing for medical record analysis
+17. Advanced multiparametric MRI techniques (inspired by Prenuvo's AI-enhanced MRI technology)
+18. AI-powered drug discovery and development (inspired by DeepMind's AlphaFold 3)
