ALT Chloe is an aerospace engineering major and SURC student who is a part of Dr. Hwan Choi's lab. Chloe's research focuses on identifying the level of energy return of the Achilles tendon when treated with different tendon-lengthening surgeries, in order to provide more effective treatment methods for children with idiopathic toe-walking. To any student thinking of conducting undergraduate research, Chloe's advice is: "Doing research is one of the best experiences you could possibly get as an undergraduate by having the opportunity to apply your knowledge and learn new things outside of the classroom. It is definitely worth pursuing. Once you're there, remember that things will not always go as planned in research, and that's okay."
