Profile Summary

I am an experienced scientific writer and researcher with work experience of over 11 years. I have a rich experience in pharma industry where I joined as an associate scientist after my studies and had an exponential growth phase. When I quit my job in pharma industry for personal reasons, I was a Senior Research Scientist. Briefly, my work experience in pharma industry included the following
o	Reviewing a vast ocean of literature has helped me in improving my knowledge pertaining to nitty-gritty of drug discovery and development
o	Thorough review improved my ability to comprehend and present the data within a limited time frame
o	Worked in several projects ranging from infectious diseases, metabolic disorders, asthma and cancer
o	Active participation in drug discovery pipeline starting from critical target evaluation, strategic differentiation to gain competitive advantage, multiple assay development in order to design a relevant screening cascade, supervision of overall screening activities, candidate identification and profiling, within stringent timeline.

With the research experience in hand, I joined an e-learning industry, where I prepare e-learning modules, print modules, virtual class room training and assessments. 
o	Writing scientifically accurate content on a variety of medical topics; to prepare training modules for the sales force of pharmaceutical clients
o	Carrying out extensive study of scientific literature and writing the complicated scientific content into lucid comprehensible language 
o	Statistical analysis and presentation of scientific data to both internal and external stake holders 
o	Completed a few online courses on Instructional designing and adult learning

My experiences also include:
o	Mid-level manager, over-seeing the work of direct reports and involved in their appraisal process
o	Played a major role in mentoring direct reports and in improving their scientific skills
o	Closely monitored of the individual development of team members by assigning tasks according to their diverse expertise
o	Coordinated with other departments regarding status of different projects to take the project towards the subsequent stage

I am sure my experiences would come in handy for anyone who hires me as a freelancer.
