Skills
During my Master’s studies, I worked on circular RNAs and microRNAs regulating an autophagy gene (ATG16L1) in colorectal cancer. I used patient tissue and blood samples, performed RNA/DNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, PCR, qPCR, Western blotting and cell and tissue culture. These experiences taught me not only how to handle human samples carefully but also how to understand cancer from a molecular point of view.
I’m a passionate and detail-oriented biochemist who always tries to go beyond what is available. Because our lab had limited equipment, I joined different workshops and courses to improve my skills. I also learned flow cytometry, ELISA, gene cloning, molecular cloning, protein expression and purification transformation, and affinity chromatography (Ni-NTA).
I also recognized that, as a future biologist, I needed to advance my bioinformatics skills, because computational and experimental techniques together can reveal scientific puzzles more effectively. Therefore, I pursued training in R programming, RNA-Seq data analysis, CRISPR-Cas9, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) to strengthen my molecular biology and computational skills, which I can now apply in research projects. I also started learning animal work under supervision, including tumor induction in Balb/c mice, blood collection, and anesthesia.
About
I am a hardworking and motivated person Because my biggest goal in life is to become a capable researcher as the top student in my master’s program, I was accepted to do my thesis at IKH Cancer Institute, the scientific hub of my country, and I received full funding for my project — funding that was only given to the best students. My thesis was selected as the best master’s thesis, and after graduation, I was offered the position of lab manager at the same institute, where I continue to work, train students, and coordinate research activities. And I promise you that if I am accepted into your team, I will continue to act strong and purposeful.
