Emma-Le Olsen

 

Biography:

Emma-Le Olsen is a current Baylor Undergraduate with a Biochemistry Major and Sociology and Biology Minor. She is on the Pre-Medical track and will graduate in 2024. Future goals include going to Medical school where she is particularly interested in primary care and internal medicine.

 

Current Area:

My work includes imaging single channel and theta capillaries after being pulled into needle points for use in nano-electrospray ionization. Towards this I use a scanning electron microscope, a P-1000 pipette puller, and an orbitrap mass spectrometer. My future work will include working with capillaries that have been coated with a PEG layer to increase ionization sensitivity.
