USD 50 /hr

Accomplished immunologist with 9+ years experience in oncology R&D and a knack for scientific illustration, writing & IT

Profile Summary

I obtained a masters in chemistry from Philipps University Marburg, Germany and done my thesis in biochemistry researching the localization of a cold shock protein in B. subtilis. I earned a PhD (Dr. rer. nat ~ DSc) in Immunology/ cell biology investigating the mechanism by which BCG activates human dendritc cells. Worked as a postdoc in Dmitry Gabrilovich's lab on projects seeking to clarify immune cell suppression in the tumor microenvironment and also on testing NBE in clinical trials. In my previous roles at various academic institutes and industry, I gained insights into a brouhgt range of topics that allowes me to developed research strategies and propose research projects. I produced and reviewed a wide range of scientific materials, including text for annual reports, webpages, SOPs, manuscripts, presentations, and posters, ensuring their scientific accuracy and alignment with corporate messaging. My ability to translate complex scientific data into clear, engaging content has been instrumental in supporting both internal and external communications. Additionally, my experience in translating scientific messages into visually appealing content has honed my skills in delivering impactful scientific messages to diverse audiences. I am well acquainted with MS Office, reference managers, Origin, vector graphic programs, and i.e. Canva.
