Summary
I am interested in entering the biotechnology industry after working in a lab for my Behavioral Neuroscience degree. I feel that a career in lab work could allow me to use what I've learned over the course of my university career, particularly in biological (bacterial culture assays, data collection, regression analysis) and chemical (titration, solution preparation and isolation, spectroscopy) procedures. Please let me know if you require more information about my education or qualifications.
