Scientific advisor and writer. Stem cell biology, organoids and cellular models.

Profile Summary

With a distinguished career in cutting-edge research, I specialize in the development of innovative 2D and 3D stem cell differentiation models and organoids, combining hands-on expertise with a talent for translating complex scientific concepts into accessible and impactful written content. My technical expertise spans advanced techniques such as stem cell culture, CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, and confocal microscopy, which I leverage to drive scientific breakthroughs while ensuring the highest standards of quality and reproducibility. Advisory Expertise: I bring a wealth of experience adhering to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), ensuring the precision and reliability of research outcomes. With a proven track record in mentoring and guiding PhD students and research technicians, I excel at leading collaborative, high-impact research initiatives. As a freelance scientific advisor, I offer strategic insights and technical guidance to research teams and organizations, helping to design experiments, develop projects, and perform data analysis in stem cell biology, cellular modeling, and genetic manipulation. Scientific Writing Services: In addition to my technical skills, I am an accomplished scientific writer with a passion for effective science communication. I specialize in crafting clear, concise, and engaging content for various audiences—from peer-reviewed manuscripts and grant proposals to scientific outreach materials and educational content. My writing services include: • Manuscripts and Publications: Translating complex research findings into publishable manuscripts for high-impact journals, ensuring clarity, rigor, and adherence to journal guidelines. • Grant Proposals: Crafting compelling and well-structured grant applications that communicate the innovation and significance of research projects. • Technical Documentation: Developing protocols, reports, and SOPs tailored to specific research and laboratory needs, ensuring documentation is thorough and compliant with regulatory standards. • Science Outreach and Educational Content: Creating content for non-scientific audiences, simplifying advanced scientific topics for outreach activities, educational programs, or public engagement efforts. Commitment to Quality & Communication: I am deeply committed to fostering effective communication, whether in the laboratory or through the written word. My collaborative approach and problem-solving mindset enable me to work closely with teams, offering both scientific advisory and writing services that elevate the impact of research projects. I am meticulous in my work, ensuring that all deliverables meet the highest quality standards.
