Kelsey Louie
@kelseylouie
Biomedical engineering student skilled in molecular assays, data analysis, and AI tools.
What I'm looking for
I am a biomedical engineering undergraduate with strong laboratory experience in molecular and cell-based assays, data validation, and AI-assisted literature analysis aimed at drug discovery and regulatory submission support.
In research roles I have performed circadian and cellular thermal shift assays, PCR, cell viability experiments, maintained multiple mammalian cell lines, and contributed experimental results to lab meetings and PI updates. I have also used AI tools and FDA resources to validate data and analyze approval documents supporting IND/NDA processes.
Outside the lab I create data-informed social content as a PR lead for a ballet company, mentor and tutor students, and engage in leadership training with SWE; I bring technical rigor, communication skills, and a collaborative mindset to interdisciplinary teams.
