Nutrition Scientist (PhD) | Animal & Human Clinical Studies| Study Design, 10+ years Data Analysis & Scientific Writing

Profile Summary

I'm a PhD animal scientist with more than three years of postdoctoral research in nutrition, gut microbiology and molecular methods. My work spans in vitro, animal and human studies, and I enjoy helping teams design sound experiments, make sense of complex data and communicate results clearly. In my current role at Purdue, I coordinate IRB-approved human nutrition trials IACUC approved pre-clinical studies. My work covers protocol development, participant management, sample collection and data analysis under GCP. Previous work at FDA's NCTR I developed qPCR-based diagnostic assays and carried out microbiology and immunology research on coronavirus NL-63. This gave me hands-on experience with research done to regulatory standards. PhD, Virginia Tech (Animal Science) My doctoral research looked at how fiber and protein sources (soybean meal, heat-treated soybean meal, beet pulp and alfalfa hay) affect rumen dynamics and short-chain fatty acid production. I also applied machine learning to complex rumen fermentation data. B.Sc. and M.Sc. (University of Ruhuna / University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka) I evaluated exogenous fibrolytic enzymes and tannin-binding agents as feed additives using in vitro fermentation and in vivo animal studies. How I can help Study design and protocols for animal, in vitro and human nutrition studies Literature reviews and evidence summaries Statistical analysis and data interpretation (R) Scientific writing: manuscripts, reports, grant sections and technical documents
