Profile Summary

My name is Rebecca and I have a PhD in Cell Biology, Genetics, and Molecular Medicine from the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. I have 12 years experience in biomedical research and am highly knowledgeable in embryonic development and pluripotent stem cell biology. I also have education in cell biology, molecular biology, biology of aging, neuroscience, translational science, and molecular medicine. I am author on 1 first-author publication and 10 peer-reviewed science publications. I have written grants, papers, and a dissertation and have significant experience in biology writing. I also have technical skills in cell culture including cancer cells and embryonic stem cells, polymerase chain reactions (PCR), quantitative real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, transgenic mouse models, inverted microscopy, confocal microscopy, basic statistics, word, excel, powerpoint, and graph pad prism. I am providing services in technical writing, content writing, proofreading, editing, and basic biology illustrations using PowerPoint and clipart. I am open to opportunities not listed.
