Madeline Tran Receives a 2024 Steinbright Research Cooperative Education Award June 6, 2024 Madeline Tran, undergraduate student, School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems, received a 2024 Steinbright Research Co-op Award in recognition of her exceptional effort in fulfilling the goals and ideals of cooperative education. Madeline was nominated for the award by her co-op employer, Banu Ahtam at the Boston Children's Hospital. As a research assistant at the Boston Children's Hospital, Madeline maintained great attention to detail, followed all protocols carefully, and produced outcomes without errors in a timely manner for various projects. Madeline’s main project was examining the nutritional intake of preterm babies born in the neonatal intensive care unit and studying the effect of milk components on brain white matter development and neurodevelopmental outcomes. She was very dedicated to this work, and this research will continue to shed an important light on early brain white matter development regarding preterm birth and hypoxic-ischemic injury. Madeline has made great scientific and medical contributions to this field during her time on co-op with the Boston Children's Hospital.
