In this episode, Mahima interviews two of her fellow engineers, Nilay and Radhika, to learn more about their summers spent doing research. Viterbi's summer research program allowed students to work with their professors on COVID-19 related projects. Nilay, who studies computer science, researched COVID-19 misinformation on Twitter and Radhika, an electrical and computer engineering major, used Python to understand how the virus actually spreads. Tune in to learn about the research conducted remotely and some of their most interesting findings! More details about their research and the program can be found here: http://viterbiundergrad.usc.edu/viterbi-2020-summer-research-showcase/
