  Accountable for target validation and cell culture in many cancer and primary cell lines using very thorough methods and check lists for expression and presence of the target biology and responsiveness to compound treatment. Cells were used in siRNA knockdowns, CRISPR, compound treatment, etc. Many possible oncological indications were tested using compounds for proliferation assays, 3D sphereoid assays and viability assays. Nanostring, q-RTPCR, Incucyte plating, and western blotting were used examine changes in target miRNAs and target pathway genes. Data generated was shared and presented regularly in order to develop further experiments and aid in-vivo work. Show less

  Responsible for target validation and cell culture in a wide variety of cancer cell lines using siRNA knockdowns, peptide treatments, and other experiments. Experiments included testing compounds for activity in reporter assays, proliferation assays and using techniques such as q-RTPCR, western blotting among others to demonstrate levels of desired anti-proliferative of differentiating target effects. Experimental methods and results were then presented in meetings for critique, advice on direction, and keeping others on the project updated. Working closely with the chemistry team was also instrumental to moving forward. Show less
