Profile Summary

I am a goal oriented researcher and want to use my experimental and analytical skills to create customer-focused solutions. I thrive in a fast-faced and dynamic team environment that challenges my capacity for problem solving and troubleshooting. I am a dedicated and enthusiastic biologist with 8+ years of research experience. I am a confident and articulate communicator, publishing four peer-reviewed papers as first author, and book chapter. I have attended several conferences and workshops and also participated in poster presentations.Through publishing, mentoring students, discussing science or poster presentations at national/ international conferences, I take pride in communicating and advocating for science. I am currently seeking opportunities in scientific writing/ editing/ publishing job. Professional skill: Cell culture Mammalian Cell Culture in various cell lines (HEF, MCF, Skelatal muscle, dermofibroblast), transfection, luciferase assay Molecular biology vector design, primer design, site-directed mutagenesis, restriction digestion, ligation, transformation, electroporation, preparation of competent cells, cloning, RNA extraction, plasmid and genomic DNA extraction, purification, quantification Diiferent techniques of metagenomics including isolation of DNA from soil sample, purification of soil DNA, library construction in cosmid and fosmid Western blotting, SDS PAGE, Protein expression and purification Basic mouse model handling and restraining Culturing of worms of Brugia and Onchocerca, Liquid and solid culture of bacteria Computational skills in basic bioinformatics analysis, R and Python.
