Our bodies are constantly fighting off viral pathogens both with our external barriers such as skin as well as internally through the immune system. Mucin genes specifically Muc5AC and Muc5B help assist in this process by activating both bacterial and mucus pathogenesis. Their gene expression is correlated with temperature meaning that in warmer temperatures they have decreased expression. Developing a better understanding of their functionality as well as their expression can help species that are in danger of becoming extinct.

Company X once dominated the server chip market, but its share has begun to diminish due to numerous competitors, product delays, and smaller profit margins. This market will only keep growing as advancement and demand for server technologies continues to expand, therefore, regaining market share is of utmost importance for Company X. This project analyzes how Company X can look into regaining server market share through a diversion of funds into emerging markets. The paper highlights the importance of being an early entrant into a relatively untapped, promising regional market by addressing the economics, potential consumers, and competition. Analysis of these factors shows the potential net present value (NPV) that can be achieved by increasing investments in India.

We are the “Amazon Storage” for food delivery services. Customers will be able to order take-out on established food delivery apps, such as UberEats and Grubhub. At delivery, the drivers will place your order inside our HotBox lockers. Customers will then receive a unique code to input in order to access the locker. Lockers will be temperature controlled to keep the food hot or cold depending on what the customer orders. Our product aims to provide a contact-less pickup option for customers. We will design our own proprietary storage lockers that will serve as our primary product offering. Our company would look at all aspects of designing the lockers, permits for placing around apartment complexes, and costs associated with building the lockers.

For my Thesis Project, I worked to operationalize an algorithmic trading application called Trading Dawg. Over the year, I was able to implement several analysis models, including accuracy, performance, volume, and hyperparameter analysis. With these improvements, we are in a strong position to create valuable tools in the algorithmic trading space.

This paper serves as an analysis of the current operational conditions of a real-world company – referred to as “Company X” – with respect to the IC substrate industry. The cost of substrates, a crucial component in the production of Company X’s product, has recently diverged from Company X’s predictions and is contributing to declining profitability. This analysis aims to discover the underlying cause for price divergence and recommend potential resolutions to improve the forecast of substrate costs and profitability. The paper is organized as follows: Chapter 1 is an introduction to IC substrates and the industry as a whole, Chapter 2 is a breakdown of the specific factors responsible for substrate prices, and Chapter 3 delivers a final recommendation to Company X and concludes the paper.
