Hello everyone! My name is Jamila Guard and I am a 3rd year majoring in Behavioral Neuroscience. I am currently conducting research within Dr. Eckel’s research lab which studies dysregulated eating behaviors. Watching the challenges faced by close friends and family struggling with eating disorders highlights the need to overcome unhealthy eating habits.

Los Hijos de La Madre Tierra
Hello! My name is Miriam Alrahil, and I am a third year student at FSU pursuing a dual degree in Latin American and Caribbean Studies and Middle Eastern Studies. My love of languages has placed me into a whirlwind of academic experiences here at FSU, as through both the Arabic and Spanish departments I haveContinue reading “Los Hijos de La Madre Tierra”
Ending
My original interests began with the Middle East. I think Arabic is a really unique language and the diversity in the language and MENA region are fascinating. I wanted to learn more about the eastern hemisphere and went over there and got to experience a place full of variety. I didn’t enjoy it as muchContinue reading “Ending”

Adios a Costa Rica
This experience as a whole was a very complicated and messy situation. However even with all the ups and downs I thoroughly enjoyed it and would do it again in a heartbeat if given the choice, though a more streamlined process would have been nice. The capstone for the summer experience has been shifted entirely,Continue reading “Adios a Costa Rica”
Experimentando a fin
A map of where we were would be in a way linear by this point. We had set up a new fermentation so our sphere of locations had shifted a bit by now. Our first few weeks would have consisted of our place of residence, the university, and the local supermarkets. Once we had aContinue reading “Experimentando a fin”
Eli Butters: The Data Challenge
Obtaining relevant market data to train a Long Short-Term Memory neural network will pose significant challenges. One primary hurdle in acquiring data for my training set is the cost associated with obtaining reliable data. Financial market data is often proprietary and sold by third-party providers who charge substantial fees which will make it a challengeContinue reading “Eli Butters: The Data Challenge”
Sarah Evans: Oil and Glitter on Canvas
Since the last blog post, I have gone out a few more times, exhibited in the William Johnston Building, and started drafting my initial studies for the final series. This stage of my project is all about creating the optimal imagery and headspace to reflect the duality/diversity of my subject matter. I got someContinue reading “Sarah Evans: Oil and Glitter on Canvas”
