Highlights:
-Established fully functional laboratory with staff of five within three months of hiring. Ordered laboratory equipment, supplies, and identified required trainings and certifications necessary for a fully operational laboratory.
-Prepared research review article on current drug therapies for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma concurrently with establishing the new laboratory. Article was completed within two months and accepted for publication.
-Hired to perform Lymphoma and immunology research without formal training. Developed laboratory contacts to learn immunology research laboratory techniques and established a reliable network of support. Effectively learned immunology research and provided new personnel training for techniques and procedures.
-Exceeded research publication requirements publishing nine peer reviewed research manuscripts, three peer reviewed review articles, and two book chapters within five years.
-Established a fully functional satellite laboratory in under a month saving $20,000 in cost by utilizing unused equipment from the main laboratory with no additional purchases. Reduced commute time adding an addition three hours to the research workday.
