Biologist

Summary

A place in a lab working in viral pathology or immunology, ideally working on latent viral reservoirs. Looking for professional positions where I can apply my accumulated knowledge and skills, preferably with some input in design. The lab and its work are the most important factors. Getting back to my roots in neuroscience is also a major interest. Other interests include epigenetics and cancer.

Work History

TAships

  • Organic Chemistry II (undergrad), Molecular and Cellular Lab, Seminal Papers, Intro to Bio II, Intro to Bio Lab, Microbiology Lab, Virology of HIV, Immunobiology.

  • I taught instead of the professor for Seminal papers as well as Intro to Bio Lab as an exercise towards a graduate teaching certificate
  • Also, I taught because the professor was ill.

  • Heme promotes transciptional and demethylase activities of Gis1, a member of the histone demethylase JMJD2/KDM4 family

Skillsabilities

SDS Page, Agarose gel electrophoresis, DNA miniprep, protein binding assays, protein isolation/extraction, cell culturing, spec analysis, nanodrop, cloning, transformation, PCR, Particularly skilled technical writer: have written many reviews as well as publishable reports of course experiments. Took advanced writing courses beyond core requirements. Scored a 5 on the AP Literature exam. TA’d technical writing course, Have prepared and delivered lectures up to 3 hours for undergraduates. Have given multiple short chalk talks. Prepared and delivered presentations of research. Not as strong as written skills, continuing to practice and improve this area
