About Me
I am a student at Pratt, probably going to study biomedical engineering! I'm from Toronto, Ontario (Canada). I love cliff-jumping at my cottage, and I have a dog.
Name Pronunciation
A-lli-son BRAY-thwayte. It's not too difficult. I'm not even sure how to really pronounce the middle bit of the last name so I won't judge anyone.
Current Courses
Genomes focus! And then EGR 103 (obviously) and Orgo (woot woot!)
Fun Facts
One of my front teeth is bigger than the other one, and it grew in first, so when it grew in my dentist thought maybe my two front teeth had merged into one big tooth, which would have been mildly unfortunate, but it didn't happen so we're all good.
My dorm room colours are purple and green and it looks siiiiick.

Matlab Demonstrations
My favourite demonstration was the "Loma Prieta Earthquake," because I think it's really neat how the program takes plain number/math data and turns it into a 3D visualization of a point in the earthquake. My other favourite was "The Game of Life," just because it's really fun to watch once it gets going. I like the "Travelling Salesman" too because I like watching the computer figure out the best route all by itself; very artificial intelligence-y. Arb79 (talk) 21:16, 15 September 2013 (EDT)
