  • ORISE is the backbone of respect between students and researchers: A conversation with Jake Janssen
    2025/08/13
    Jake Janssen is an ORISE Research Program Participant appointed to the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense. His research focuses on neuroscience, and hazardous chemicals in trauma medicine. In this episode of the ORISE Featurecast, he says "We look at novel polytrauma scenarios involving organophosphates and other pharmaceutical grade drugs, and traumatic brain injuries or TBIs. We want to improve upon treatment guidelines and combat casualty care through new polypharmacy methods, and also identify and study chemicals of concern so that the United States is more prepared for an impending chemical threat from any adversary we may see." In Janssen's conversation with host Michael Holtz, he talks about the underlying importance of his research, his career trajectory and some of the obstacles he has overcome in his life and career.

  • Coding and data analysis are cool: A conversation with Vivian Egan, former ORISE research program participant
    2025/07/31
    Vivian Egan is a self-described nerd who did math for fun as a kid. As a former ORISE research program participant at the Air Force Research Laboratory, Egan is doing time series studies on human behavior, two concepts that don't ordinarily intersect. Time series studies usually focus on financial or environmental data, so focusing on human behavior is novel. She's studying how people multitask and their reaction time to certain stimuli (think loud noises or other interruptions). In a recent conversation with the ORISE Featurecast, Egan talked in-depth about her research, the trajectory of her career, obstacles she's faced and successes she's realized along the way.

  • What happens in the lab doesn't just stay in the lab: A conversation with Jinfan Chen, Ph.D.
    2025/07/22
    Jingfan Chen, Ph.D., says she understood that her research had impact outside the laboratory setting when she was studying the solubility of cancer drugs. Lack of solubility -- put simply, whether a drug molecule can dissolve in liquid -- keeps potential cancer drugs from reaching the market. Her study of ways to make these drugs more soluble opened her eyes to the importance of her research outside the lab. Chen took first place in the 2024 ORISE Postdoc Poster Session Showcase for her research on the quality and safety of compounded off-brand semaglutide-based medications. As the demand for weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy has grown, there have been occasional shortages of the name-brand medications. Off-brand compounded medications are more affordable than their name brand counterparts, but can often contain ingredients that are non FDA approved. In this episode of the ORISE Featurecast Chen talks about her work on the poster that took the award, other research she has done, her career trajectory and so much more.
