Unnati Seshadri attends James Logan High School in the USA. She enjoys science, debate, and community projects.
First, Unnati won the ACSEF Science Fair Challenge in BioMechanical Engineering. She earned first place for her work. Additionally, she and her team placed third in the MIT BeaverWorks CubeSat Contest. She also reached the semifinals in Humorous Interpretation at the Harvard Debate Tournament.
Developing Solutions for Parkinson’s Disease
Unnati hopes to create solutions that improve people’s lives. For example, she explored affordable, drug-free technology for people in assisted living.
As part of this project, she developed a device to help suppress tremors in people with Parkinson’s disease. Her work earned several awards. First, she won at the county level. In addition, she received a Special Award from the US Navy. Finally, she earned an Honorable Mention at the California state level.
Research Accepted at MIT URTC
Unnati’s research paper, “Detection and Suppression of Parkinson’s Disease Tremors,” earned acceptance at the MIT Undergraduate Research Technology Conference (MIT URTC 2023) in Massachusetts.
MIT students organised the conference in partnership with IEEE. The event gives students a platform to present research papers and posters. Moreover, participants can meet other researchers and build academic connections.
Congratulations to Unnati on this achievement!
