As a QA Officer, I ensure compliance with GMP requirements by reviewing BMRs and BPRs, providing necessary documentation for production, and writing Product Quality Reviews to assess product quality over the past year.

In my role as a Research Scientist, I worked on a project involving 3D liver models, focusing on cell culture, testing, and optimizing protocols for decellularisation and recellularisation trials.

As a QC Analyst in a start-up, I learned extensive laboratory maintenance requirements, including writing SOPs, method validations, and troubleshooting, while working closely with a senior analyst.

In my role as a QC Analyst, I gained experience in GMP compliance and quality analysis, collaborating with colleagues to ensure timely production and delivery of certified products.

As a Medical Representative, I independently managed my schedule and represented pharmaceutical products to healthcare professionals, requiring in-depth knowledge of the literature and self-discipline.

During my internship, I gained hands-on experience in a laboratory environment, learning basic laboratory techniques and enhancing my knowledge of ongoing projects at the University.

I underwent this course in order to continue honing my skills in a microbiological lab. It requires the use of aseptic techniques, cell culturing, and a number of assay techniques such as cell viability, and ELISA assays and qPCR. My project is based on assessing the effects of different treatments on Lung Cancer Cells.

This course allowed me to learn and familiarise myself with a number of hands-on laboratory techniques, giving me a unique skill set. It also allowed me to learn a number of different topics relating to biochemistry - such as pharmacology, embryology, neurology, cancer, along with the organic chemistry that occurs beneath it. I was able to carry out my thesis in breast and colon cancer cells in th
