Welcome to the new home of my academic work. This site is being rebuilt as a public archive for research papers, completed coursework, and the questions I’m carrying forward as a biology student.
A place for the work to grow
I’m Devin Henrickson, a biology student at Mohave Community College working toward a B.S. in Biology and, eventually, graduate research. My long-term interests include cancer biology and acute myeloid leukemia, virology, human disease, and the biology of aging.
The archive will grow slowly and deliberately. Completed work will be published with its sources, context, and limitations attached, so the reader can see not only what I think—but how I got there and where uncertainty remains.
Research papers
Long-form projects with explicit questions, evidence, findings, limitations, and source notes.
Coursework
Selected completed assignments that document the foundation behind the research path.
Learning notes
Shorter posts about biology, school, research methods, and ideas worth revisiting.
Starting with The Furry Files
The first featured project is The Furry Files: Adult-Only vs All-Ages Furry Conventions: Prevalence and Economic Impact. It compares event categories, prevalence estimates, attendance scale, and economic considerations while keeping adult-only admission separate from adult content within mixed-age events.
That project also sets the standard for the rest of this site: label estimates, name data gaps, distinguish scenarios from observed facts, and treat uncertainty as part of honest research.
