Biomedical Scientist | Metabolism, Cardiovascular & Renal Physiology | Strategy, Experimental Design & Data Analysis

Profile Summary

I am a Ph.D. biomedical scientist with 15+ years of experience in translational research, therapeutic development, and experimental design. My expertise centers on cardiovascular disease, renal physiology, and metabolic biology, with a proven track record of leading preclinical studies, publishing in high-impact journals, and contributing to the advancement of novel therapeutics. I specialize in: Research strategy & experimental design, guiding teams in refining hypotheses, structuring rigorous studies, and interpreting results with clarity. Data analysis & critical review, with expertise in qPCR, molecular biology techniques, cell culture, cell-based assays, and in vivo/ex vivo models of cardiometabolic disease, paired with strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Scientific communication & synthesis, transforming complex data into clear insights for academic, clinical, or industry stakeholders. What sets me apart is the combination of intellectual depth (critical and intuitive thinking, broad interdisciplinary knowledge) and practical research experience (from discovery through validation). I thrive in collaborative, mission-driven projects and bring curiosity, integrity, and strategic insight to every engagement. I am particularly interested in projects related to: *Target identification, evaluation and validation *Cardiovascular and renal disease research *Metabolic biology and adipose tissue physiology *Translational and preclinical models *Literature reviews, hypothesis generation, and proposal development Whether you need support with experimental design, data interpretation, or literature analysis, I provide thoughtful, reliable, and impactful contributions to accelerate scientific discovery. Since I’m building my consulting practice, I am open to adjusting rates for first-time collaborations.
