About

Experience

  • Postdoctoral Researcher at Masaryk University
    Mar 2026 - Present · 4 mos

  • Doctoral Student at Imperial College London
    Oct 2021 - Oct 2025 · 4 yrs 1 mo

    I have been studying for a PhD here at Imperial College London since October 2021. I enjoy taking on new opportunities and seeking new experiences. I always do my best and expect the highest quality of work. I am keen on medicinal chemistry, where you can make a new drug to save people's life. My expertise is to design and synthesise new molecules and evaluate the biological properties of those molecules. Apart from studying for a PhD, I also love taking city photos, especially in London. If you have a similar interest, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to talking with you.

  • Research Assistant at National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology
    Mar 2021 - Aug 2021 · 6 mos

    I worked as a past-time chemist synthesising P218 analogues for the development of antimalarial drug under the umbrella of BIOTEC, a private scientific institute in Thailand.

  • Research Assistant at Chulalongkorn University
    Feb 2020 - Feb 2021 · 1 yr 1 mo

    As a research assistant, my duty was to design and synthesise novel compounds. The novel analogue of rupintrivir, one of a few promising molecules that failed in phase II clinical trial for the treatment of hand, foot and mouth disease, is finally synthesised within 17 steps.

  • Research Internship at International Medical University
    Jul 2019 - Nov 2019 · 5 mos

    When I was writing up my Master's thesis, I joined the International Medical University as a short-term internship for 4 months. This was funded by the Royal Thai Government Scholarship called DPST. My experiences at IMU includes: a) culturing Plasmodium falciparum (3D7 stain) in human blood environment; b) studying in vitro microsomal metabolic stability of small molecules using HPLC method; c) studying other techniques (i.e. in situ ROS production using PNO bleaching by hydrogen peroxide, in vitro ROS production in human red blood cells, and determination of mitochondrial membrane potential) to find the mechanism of action of a promising molecule. Thanks Professor Ng Chew Hee for supervising during the period.
