Experience
1.5 years
Research Interest/Area
Industrial Biotechnology, Molecular biology, Proteomics, Yeast genetics, cancer biomarkers
Research
Yeast genetics
In my previous work experience, the work focus has been on tuning the expression of pharmaceutically important proteins in Yeast models. This has given me extensive hands-on experience in yeast genetics, molecular biology and gene editing tools like CRISPR/Cas9.
Cancer Proteomics
The current work focus is on proteomics in cancer subtypes. Particular attention is given to Gastric cancer proteome, Post-translational modifications and Data-Independent Acquisition based biomarker panel development for gastric cancer diagnosis and prognosis.
