What I'm looking for

Seeking a research-oriented role that utilizes my skills in molecular biology, bioinformatics, and microbiome science to contribute to innovative projects and advance scientific knowledge.

I am a self-motivated, diligent, responsible researcher and team player with excellent work organization and planning skills and exceptional interpersonal communication. I can work independently in research administration and leadership roles.

My research experience spans across various disciplines, including bacteriology, mycology, soil microbial ecology, entomology, molecular biology, and genetic and animal diseases research. I have worked on several projects, including analyzing soil microbiomes to identify microbial biomarkers that cause soil-borne diseases in potatoes and identifying soil microbes, bacteria, and fungi.

I possess a strong background in molecular biology, multivariate statistics, and bioinformatics, with expertise in DNA isolation, sequencing, and analysis. I am proficient in R programming and have experience with data visualization, ordination methods, and population genetic analysis.
