About
An experienced, knowledgeable biophysical chemist with ten years of experience in super resolution microscopy,
molecular biology, genome engineering of eukaryotic cells, high throughput microfluidics based single cell screening,
and advanced spectroscopy based biophysical methods. I have been a key player of several collaborative projects based
on my communication skills and have led both single molecule microscopy based in-vivo biochemistry and single cell
based epigenic memory projects. In my quest to keep learning new skills in science, I have transitioned from being a
full time skilled biophysical chemist to a molecular biologist as a postdoc fellow in 2017. This challenging transition
has sharpened my knowledge in two diverse scientific fields: molecular biophysics and single cell epigenetics. I have
extensively collaborated with 3 experimental labs in the University of Michigan and have been led team-based projects
in the group.
