Techniques Shria Paraashar Uses:
I enjoy nurturing my curious mind by breaking everything down to its simplest terms first. If I am presented with a problem I am unfamiliar with, this technique works best. I also integrate research (lots of research to educate myself of course) and common sense. Before I even decide to solve a problem, I question myself and narrow down my answers to "what", "why", and "how". "What" is really defining the problem; i.e. where and what the need is. "Why" explains why I'd employ my method of solving it. "How" will describe the result.

Shria Paraashar's Problem Solving Experience:
- I was part of a team to come test an idea to help patients with Alzheimer's disease retain information for a longer period of time. We recorded instructions to take their medications to the melody of the popular nursery rhyme "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". Upon hearing, the patients were able to recall the directions at a later period during the day. Retention was longer and our prediction was supported by the results. The study is still under testing phase.
