Profile Summary

Postdoctoral Researcher (Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen, Denmark) Apr 2024 - Present • Finalizing first-author paper on TOP3A mutations and collaborating on protein degradation projects in disease-relevant cell models. • Contributing to method development and assay design with a focus on functional readouts. • Building experience in translational science and gaining exposure to innovation protection processes. PHD Graduate Student (Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen, Denmark) May 2020 - Apr 2024 • Led research on a rare genetic disorder involving DNA repair, using both cellular and biochemical approaches. • Characterized genetically modified mouse models through early embryo dissection and histological staining. • Carried out studies on genetically modified mouse models via embryonic dissections and functional stem cell assays. • Purified and analyzed disease-associated TOP3A protein variants using advanced HPLC methods (AFC, IEX, SEC). • Co-authored publications in peer-reviewed journals and presented at international conferences. • Developed strengths in scientific communication, interdisciplinary teamwork, and project ownership. Research Assistant (Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen, Denmark) Nov 2019 - Apr 2020 Copenhagen Municipality, Capital Region of Denmark, DenmarkCopenhagen Municipality, Capital Region of Denmark, Denmark • Investigated DNA damage responses in cancer models as part of a cross-lab collaboration. • Performed drug screening and live-cell imaging assays on mammalian cell lines. • Deepened practical skills in immunofluorescence and microscopic analysis. Medical Trainee (Clinical Rotations) (Xinhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University, School of Medicine, China) Aug 2018 - Jun 2019 • Rotated through key clinical departments including internal medicine, surgery, oncology, and pediatrics. • Supported patient care through physical examinations, medical record documentation, and surgery prep. • Gained strong foundations in medical reasoning, time-sensitive teamwork, and patient communication. • This experience continues to shape me to approach scientific problems with real-world impact in mind. Master Thesis Student (CRCL Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Lyon, France) Sep 2017 - Jun 2018 • Researched epigenetic readers involved in breast cancer cell lines. • Gained hands-on lab experience in qPCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence, and mammalian cell culture. • Authored and presented findings at internal seminars and developed my communication skills across language and culture contexts. Research Trainee, Pharmacology Dept. (Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, China) Nov 2015 - Jun 2016 • Worked on protein purification and enzymatic assays related to pharmacological compounds. • Developed technical skills in HPLC purification, cloning, SDS-PAGE, and functional activity assays. • Learned to troubleshoot experiments independently and report findings clearly.
