What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role in microbiology or clinical research that offers opportunities for professional growth and contributes to advancing scientific knowledge.

As a dedicated Microbiologist with over five years of professional experience, I specialize in PCR testing, cell-based assays, clinical research, and laboratory operations. My career has been marked by a strong ability to coordinate with laboratory teams to execute complex research projects, identifying opportunities for process improvement to enhance quality control in dynamic environments.

Currently, I serve as a Biology Research Associate at the National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, where I analyze bacterial metabolites, optimize laboratory protocols, and develop pre-clinical studies. Previously, at Gen Corp., I conducted cell-based assays and research studies, driving process improvements in DNA extraction procedures and collaborating on simulations of human antibody responses to bacterial infections.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Biology from the UP Institute of Biology, with proficiency in Gas Chromatography, Flow Cytometry, and Cell-Based Assays. My expertise in laboratory operations and commitment to data integrity ensures high-quality outcomes in PCR and DNA testing.
