New Malden, England, United Kingdom
First-class MSc graduate (UCL) with practical experience in neuromuscular disease research. Substantial expertise in bioinformatics, qPCR and statistical analysis.
• Performed Over-representation Analysis (ORA) on RNA-seq data to map disease progression in SBMA/ALS4 models. • Uncovered novel shared pathways between the two disease models by analysing transcriptomic datasets with WebGestalt and ShinyGO. • Analysed qPCR data on the therapeutic potential of the polyamine ‘spermidine’, revealing a potent non-linear in vitro dose-response but selective in vivo efficacy across SBMA models. • Correlated molecular endpoints of ALS4 with protein-level pathology by evaluating • immunohistochemical (IHC) stains alongside qPCR markers, revealing enhanced DNA damage alongside impaired autophagic flux and cell cycle arrest. • Presented research developments and findings at weekly lab meetings to ensure effective collaboration.
• Authored and developed weekly medical articles while maintaining quality aligned with publication goals. • Organised virtual meetings and collaborated on timelines to ensure the timely publication of medical articles. • Partnered with cross-functional teams to integrate medical insights seamlessly into editorial content.
• Observed the diagnosis and treatment of chronic spinal and joint pain utilising physiotherapy, various imaging modalities, and steroidal injections. • Developed patient communication skills, effectively instilling confidence and understanding of procedures in patients.
• Devised targeted learning plans, integrating tailored tutoring strategies for both 11+ (Verbal/Non- Verbal Reasoning) and GCSE Science (aligning with exam-board specifications). • Ensured a deep understanding of core concepts and exam techniques through engaging, high- value sessions, utilising worksheets and focused methods for optimal exam readiness. • Spearheaded focused sessions for complex topics, leading to measurable improvements in exam scores. • Successfully coached both 11+ students to achieve outstanding exam results, securing places at top-ranked independent schools (King’s College School and Hampton Court House School).
