Writer & Consultant in Genetics & Molecular Biology

Profile Summary

I have obtained an MSci and PhD in Genetics and Molecular Biology. I have 6 years experience in academic research with projects focused on developmental biology, gene regulation and the 3D organisation of the genome using microscopy and molecular biology tools. During my PhD I contributed to several manuscripts and was involved with the writing, reviewing and editing process. I am interested in academic writing and scientific communication and would be very interested to work on projects in the area of Genetics, Molecular Biology and General Biology. Please get in touch with any projects!
