I am extremely grateful and honored for this precious opportunity. I am thankful to
Dr. Arthur Mak, from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and to
Dr. Savio Woo, MSRC, University of Pittsburgh, for this invaluable research experience.
During my internship, my main task was to participate in the project, “Corrosion Characterization of Pure Magnesium Coated by Micro-Arc Oxidation (MAO)”, with my mentor,
Ms. Jonquil R. Mau, by studying the corrosion characteristic of magnesium using in vitro and electrochemical testing. While at the MSRC, I learned 1) that to be a good researcher, everything must be handled carefully, precisely, and safely; 2) how to have effective reading skills and critically analyze a study; 3) how to be patient; and 4) how to improve my communication skills, presentation skills and to make an effective PowerPoint presentation.
Lastly, I would like to thank
Dr. Woo, and
Dr. Mak for providing this opportunity and to
Dr. Ramon Cugat,
Dr. Montsé Garcia, and
ASIAM Institute for the support to explore this exciting area of research.
