Profile Summary

As a research professor, I have a strong knowledge base in microbiology and proven skills in scientific writing in biological science disciplines. I can offer peer-review comments on the scientific content and citations of your manuscripts. I can also help improve the clarity of your text, remove inconsistencies, highlight key findings to emphasize impact, and format the text in accordance with the requirements of the target journal. In addition, I would be happy to provide consulting advice on research projects as well as microbiology quality control tests for the pharmaceutical industry, such as preservative efficacy testing, antibiotic potency testing, sterility testing, microbial enumeration testing, etc. I have a PhD in molecular microbiology from the University of Glasgow, UK. My research track record is in microbial pathogenesis, antimicrobial resistance, quorum sensing studies, and other microbiology-related topics. I have published more than 20 peer-reviewed research papers and abstracts. I reviewed manuscripts for several scientific journals, including Frontiers in Microbiology, Journal of Applied Microbiology, Journal of International Medical Research, and the MDPI journals Antibiotics, Genes, and Medicina. My areas of expertise include microbiology (medical, pharmaceutical, and environmental), molecular and cell biology, biotechnology, biochemistry, and immunology.
