Profile Summary

I have a Ph.D. in Biology with a major in Neuroscience(medical) and minors in Biochemistry, Physics, and Mathematics with experience in basic and clinical research as well as teaching at the college level. Have developed expertise in writing grants, developing experimental protocols, publishing in scientific journals, presenting seminars, and supervising/training faculty/staff/students. Physics has given me great insight to concepts of problem solving. Able to keep up with new information and to handle tight deadlines, administrative duties, planning, and fiscal aspect. When working with novel research from a single lab, one has to perform all aspects of the business. There is very little division of labor. You must be completely self reliant as research is highly competitive. Do your work well and publish first. Currently retired but I enjoy writing on biomed topics.
