  I plan and develop experiment protocols in biofilm testing for aerobic, anaerobic and fungal microorganisms. Conducting research and development work with biofilms to validate different complex biofilm models.I am responsible for data analysis and visualization, writing conclusive reports and suggesting recommendations and feedbacks. I use various different microbiological assays such as multi-species biofilm testing, MIC/MBC testing, zone of inhibition, regrowth assays and time kill assays… Show more I plan and develop experiment protocols in biofilm testing for aerobic, anaerobic and fungal microorganisms.

I use various different microbiological assays such as multi-species biofilm testing, MIC/MBC testing, zone of inhibition, regrowth assays and time kill assays along with different molecular assays such as DNA/RNA extractions, qPCR and ELISA. Working in a laboratory with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), hence consistently with safety protocols, producing data that is accurate, compliant with regulatory standards and aware of COSHH forms.

  Worked on multiple different projects with different corporations: I conducted testing on different bacterial strains against different actives to determine their planktonic and sessile MIC along with time-kill assays, growth curves, checkerboard assay and Miles and Misra to determine treatment of biofilms. Furthermore, carried out testings using hydrogel models. Gained hands on experience with human cell lines, cell stimulation, tissue fixing, permeabilization and blocking, DNA/RNA… Show more Worked on multiple different projects with different corporations: I conducted testing on different bacterial strains against different actives to determine their planktonic and sessile MIC along with time-kill assays, growth curves, checkerboard assay and Miles and Misra to determine treatment of biofilms. Furthermore, carried out testings using hydrogel models. Gained hands on experience with human cell lines, cell stimulation, tissue fixing, permeabilization and blocking, DNA/RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, qPCR and human CXCL-8/IL-8 ELISA. Graduate teaching assistant: Trained and worked as a Graduate teaching assistant for the MSc students during theoretical and lab classes teaching statistical analysis, pipetting techniques, preparation of media, DNA extractions, ELISA, crystal violet assay and XTT assay.
