Chemists With Disabilities: University of Delaware REU #2 - Duration: 3:31.
Okay, cool
Hello, my name is Deanna Greco. I'm a student at the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC
I'm a biochemistry major and I'm going to share my story about well, really my research experience at the University of Delaware
so
Like I said, I'm a biochemistry major, but at my school we don't really have many research opportunities
So I figured that for the summer the best thing to do would be to look for a research program
The science and engineering Leadership Initiative re you seem to be a great fit fit because I have a disability
I'm legally blind and the program is specifically designed for people with disabilities
So I thought hey that's a win-win situation. It'll work out best
So I applied and lucky me I got it
so in applying to the program I had to share that I have a service dog and
because of that and because of my vision, I really
Couldn't work in a wet lab setting I had to be in more of a computational setting
Even though I really didn't know what that entailed
but I jumped into it and but like I said
I wrote that I wanted to be in a computational lab so low and behold. I'm in a computational lab and
I've been here for ten weeks and I can honestly say it's been a wonderful experience
I've learned so much just
like computer computer programming type things because a lot of it obviously is computer-based and
handle, like setup simulations to to almost act like you're in a wet lab but on a computer and
that accommodated me very well because
You know my dog could be there the whole time
I didn't have to worry about messing with chemicals that I could potentially get hurt with because I can't see well enough
So it was really a great fit in that regard
As far as accommodations go I
Really didn't need that much here
But I did like I have zoom software that I use to make the computer really a bit like this
Font really large I use like a 40 inch screen. So that's pretty intense
Oh, I need like all my PDFs that I like tutorials and such to be accessible
So if like so that a screen reading software can go through it
And that's about all I really had here but at school
It's a lot more. So for a lab setting like organic chemistry lab
I had an assistant that would basically be my eyes for observation
Help me measure things do everything that everybody else does like make up for what I couldn't do on my own
so I have that and
There was a lot of
Like obviously like testing accommodations which is a feel like anybody who's associated with a disability office has that
But really when I come to think about it, there's not much else making it like I said before making PDFs accessible
there really isn't that much that I need but mostly because I
can see a little bit so that does help and
Yeah, I just I've had a great summer at University of Delaware
And I've learned like I said before I've learned a ton and it's just been a great experience

Chemists With Disabilities: University of Delaware REU - Duration: 3:25.
Hello, my name is Deanna Greco, I'm a student at the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC
And I'm a biochemistry major
Currently doing research at the University of Delaware with the science and engineering leadership initiative program
so my school
Like I said, I go to Catholic University and we're a smaller school. So we don't have many research opportunities
so one of my advisors advisors encouraged me to apply for an REU over the summer and
The science and engineering leadership initiative program was a great fit or a great one to apply to at least
Because it's designed for people with disabilities and I'm legally blind. So I have a disability
so I figured hey, let's apply and see what happens and
Luckily I got in
So I spent the last
ten weeks doing
Doing computational research and in my application
I specified that I needed to be doing computational research because of my vision so
Basically I said I have enough vision to get into trouble but not to get out of it
So in the lab setting I'm like a wet lab setting I really don't work the best
Just because it is a hazard and additionally because I have a service dog. I have a guide dog
So the fact that he couldn't be in there with me because it's obviously a safety issue. I
Didn't want to be in a wet lab and yes
I could have put him out in a cage in the hallway because I've heard of other people doing that
But it just I don't like the idea of people being able to walk by and pet him or mess with him
Because really the fact that he's a service dog
They're not supposed to be pet like when they're in harness when they're when they're actually working because it distracts them from their jobs
So I figured it would just be best if I could have him with me all the time
I wasn't around chemicals and I was in a safe space so
The computational lab was definitely a safer space. It was all computers
So basically what I worked on over the summer
was a
I worked with chlamydia, so I worked on a fusion protein
That helps
Helps the reproduction of chlamydia in an abroad scale. It really is a big part in making it happen
So I ran computer simulations, which is what I learned how to do here
I'd never had exposure to anything computational
I never used command-line and this summer I was immersed in it and it was just
It was so much fun to learn a new concept
like to go into something not knowing anything and then to learn to learn and and do things and collect data and
Have results at the end and know that you know for a poster presentation, there's so much to talk about it
it really gave me a new perspective on research that I didn't have before and it showed me that there is a
Lot out there that anybody regardless of whether they have a disability or not if they're interested in chemistry or biochemistry
They are able to go into an area of research. There is a spot for them. They just have to find it
