At Johns Hopkins University, I process oncology specimens to isolate PBMCs, serum, plasma, and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. I also prepare cell suspensions and reagents for downstream ELISpot assays using aseptic techniques.
I assist with drafting and reviewing lab SOPs and record sample metadata, yields, and processing steps in the internal sample database following Good Documentation Practices. I also help keep equipment ready through calibration, preventive maintenance, and quality control checks.
Previously, at Precision For Medicine, I processed and accessioned biological samples and conducted QA/QC audits while maintaining chain-of-custody tracking. At Bode Technology, I isolated DNA from forensic casework items and prepared samples for PCR amplification and gel electrophoresis.
