An innovative leader and active team player, and specialized in drug-delivery biomaterials and peptide

Profile Summary

•I am Yun, an innovative student leader and active team player, and specialized in drug-delivery biomaterials and peptide-based materials. With 10 years' experience in the biomaterials, I am trying my best to take advantages of the biomaterials and apply them in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. •With more than 5 years' management skills, I coordinated with principle investigators to run 4 projects (nanofibers and bioconversion of polysaccharides, H2S-releasing peptide and antimicrobial peptide hydrogels), and provided technical supports for many collaborators. I also widely connected with researchers from departments of biology, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, physics, statistics, and computer science, as well as school of medicine and veterinary. •I am an enthusiastic researcher with 10 years' experience on polysaccharides, peptides, small molecule synthesis, and supramolecular structure determination using analytical methods (MS, NMR, XRD, RP-HPLC, DLS, rheology, IR, UV-vis, fluorescence, CD, TEM). •6 years’ experience on analytical and preparative HPLC using Chemstation, specialized in compound separation, troubleshooting and repair of instruments. Diagnosed and repaired HPLC system manufactured from Agilent, Waters and Shimadzu. •5 years’ biological experience (cells, bacteria and fungi). Acquired the techniques for basic studies of cells and microorganisms. •Excellent time management skills and broad background knowledge, resulting in the completion of 6 projects and 3 side-projects in 10 years, with the topics including nanofibers, polysaccharides fermentations, cells and microorganisms, peptide materials, drug delivery and disease treatments. •Good knowledge and practical experience in experimental design and statistical analysis, as well as strong computer and statistical skills on research softwares (MS office, MestReNova, C-Language, JMP, Prism, Inkscape, Image-J, GIMP)
