Bio
Alan Prem Kumar, Ph.D.
I have had the opportunity to work with Amelia because she is the Lab Executive in my collaborator’s lab. I am fully aware of her professional skills and she keeps herself updated with profound knowledge about the research work and thus, making herself a great research staff. Amelia also works effectively and keeps everything well-organized. She has a warm and kind personality and has been a great pleasure working with her.

Amelia is a hardworking staff who always goes above what is asked of her. She was in the lab every night for a period of time just to finish off a project that was assigned to her. She pays attention to detail and handles clinical samples with care. She does whatever it takes to solve a problem. She is a team player and is able to meet deadlines. Amelia is definitely a diligent lady who is a high achiever.
