Our team would like to express our thanks to mentors and supporters from the University of California, Irvine and Edwards Life Sciences for the opprotunity to work on this project. Their support and resources they provided allowed our team to achieve all that we did during our project.
Thank you to professor Michele Khine and her graduate students for allowing access to their lab, and to the BioEngine and Undergarduate Research Opprotunites Program (UROP) for providing funding to our project.
Lastly thank you to Alex, Muhammad, and Andrew from Edwards Life Sciences for providing mentorship and guidance for the use of the Bioimpedance system and for sponsoring our senior design project.
