Description
As an accomplished research professional with proven success in project planning/management, I am seeking to apply my extensive experience in biochemistry and biophysics to a more challenging position. My strong background in principles and applications of protein biochemistry and spectroscopy has given me a broad familiarity with in vitro structure-function characterization of a variety of enzymes. I also possess solid technical training in protein-protein interaction as well as protein interaction with nucleic acids. In addition, I have several years of hands-on practice in the expression and purification of native and recombinant proteins from bacterial and eukaryotic cells along with a significant experience in the design, development, and troubleshooting of bioassays for evaluation of protein functional activities. My study of DNA replication/repair and in-depth research of protein characterization have gained recognition in leading scientific journals. I am currently holding a position as Research Specialist at Rockefeller University after having worked for several years as Professor at Manhattan College in New York, where I taught courses and laboratories in chemistry and biochemistry to undergraduate students. Thanks to these positions, I acquired experience in running my own lab, planning new research projects, supervising students, federating team work and writing papers and grants to fund my research. I have a passion for science and innovation and a strong commitment to constant improvements. I want to make significant contributions in a result-oriented team-driven environment, and look forward to combining my academic knowledge and expertise with my keen interest in health care and drug discovery.
