Profile Summary

I am an ambitious, self-motivated, biomedical research scientist with almost 6+ years experience with extensive knowledge and technical skills in Human Physiology and therapeutics areas of Rheumatology/Oncology. My research goal has always been to be creative but persistent. I do my level best to highlight the importance of my devotion and practical knowledge while supervising/ training the young researchers. Presently, I am seeking opportunities in the pharmaceutical/R&D/ medical device industries within scientific or medical background where I can utilize my technical/ professional skills as well as my leadership, communication and teamwork skills to effectively lead drug/product development, preclinical trials, resolve complex informations and deliver relevant information in support of overall patients health. Let's touch base! Techincal Skills: • Therapeutic expertise in Osteoarthritis, Obesity, Hepatotoxicity, Nanotechnology • Extensive experience in Animal models of Arthritis, Obesity, Hepatotoxicity, Inflammation & In vitro study (Chondrocytes, synoviocytes etc) • Expertise in different Molecular techniques like (Western, Genotyping, Immunohistochemistry, Histopathology, PCR, qRTPCR, cDNA,RNA extraction, Metabolomics, protein purification, ). • Extensive experience in writing SOPs, Scientific Reports, Papers and Review articles in high impact journals • Designed novel therapeutic strategies with 6+ years of collaborative and independent research in arthritis, hepatotoxicity and nanotechnology leading to 16 publications and 7 awards • Trained 6 undergraduates and 2 doctoral researchers as a project team leader during my PhD and Postdoctoral studies
