About me
My name is Yasiel Trujillo and I am a transfer student to Duke University. I was born and raised in Cuba and I lived there for 17 years before I came to the States. When I moved, I lived in Miami, FL where I did my last year of High School and continued to the Honors College at the local Community College (MDC). I studied there for two years (2013-2015) and then I was lucky enough to transfer to Duke's Biomedical Engineering program!
Name Pronunciation
Yes, it's a hard name to pronounce if you are not hispanic. The best I can do is Ja-see-ell True-he-yo. Hope it helps..
Current Courses
- EGR103 with Dr. G,
- BIO201 with Dr. Alison Hill,
- EGR201 with Dr. Fred Boadu, and
- MATH216 with Dr. Clark Bray.
Interests
I love playing table tennis whenever I have time (which is not a lot since I started Duke). I also like hiking, swimming and bowling.

MATLAB
An interesting fact about MATLAB is that not only is it useful for manipulating numerical data, but it also can create a 3D movie of a function!! With the appropriate commands, it can show the movement in 3D, allowing for a better understanding of the behavior at a specific location.
