Yulia Nuzhina
@yulianuzhina
Molecular biologist with biotech research and commercial analysis experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a molecular biologist with hands-on research experience in oncology and biotechnology, combined with commercial analysis work supporting e-commerce and market evaluation. I have worked in academic and industry settings across Russia, the United States, and the UK, and I bring a practical, data-driven approach to problem solving.
My scientific background includes graduate- and junior-level research roles in molecular oncobiology, amyloid biology, and experimental oncology where I contributed to projects on transcriptional reprogramming and transcription factor binding studies. I have laboratory expertise in cell and molecular biology and biochemistry techniques.
In industry roles I served as a Biotech Junior Analyst conducting market research and business opportunity evaluation, and as a Retail Portfolio Manager Assistant performing listing research and financial analysis for e-commerce platforms. I combine technical literacy with the ability to analyze trends and translate results for decision making.
I am proficient in bioinformatics using Python, front-end development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), and productivity tools including MS Office, Google Suite, and Adobe Photoshop. I seek roles where I can apply both my wet-lab experience and analytical skills to advance biotech projects or product strategies.
