Profile Summary

My name is Dr. Alma Tamunonengiofori Banigo. I am a biomedical scientist and I hold a PhD in Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering. I have a particular interest in developing novel solutions in the fields of regenerative medicine, biomedical devices, and translational healthcare. I have a strong background in the areas of Biomedical Engineering, Tissue Engineering, and Cell Biology. I have strong proficiency in 3D Cell Culture, Stem Cell Research, Biocompatibility Testing, and other relevant fields. I combine wet-lab expertise—including Microscopy, Molecular Biology, and Bioprinting—with computational and AI-driven approaches such as Bioinformatics, Data Analysis, Machine Learning, Neural Networks, and Image Processing to deliver data-backed insights for scientific and medical applications. I offer the following services on Kolabtree: 1) Scientific & Technical Writing: literature reviews, manuscripts, grant proposals, and other technical reports. 2) Research Consulting: protocol and method optimization, and experimental design. 3) Data Science & Bioinformatics: statistical analysis, image processing, and predictive modeling using Python, TensorFlow, and Keras. 4) Biomedical Product Development: consulting on the design, development, and biocompatibility evaluation of medical devices. I pay attention to detail, I am very creative, and I am always results-driven. I always ensure that best practices in science and medicine are upheld and that it is matched with precise and practical results. If you are looking for experimental work, AI analysis, or even a precise and clear document to write and publish, I will assist you in bringing your project from concept to completion.
