About
Biomedical Researcher (Microbiology and Immunology) | Molecular Biology & Biotechnology
I am a dedicated biomedical researcher with a strong foundation in molecular biology & biotechnology. My academic journey includes:
• MS in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology from East Carolina University, USA
• Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Biomedicine at the Brody School of Medicine, East Carolina University
My expertise encompasses neurodegenerative diseases and virology with a particular focus on understanding the role of SARS-CoV-2 in neurodegeneration.
With a passion for scientific discovery, I have actively contributed to research on miRNA regulation, gene function, and environmental and molecular determinants of neurological disorders. My work integrates genetic, cellular, and biochemical approaches to explore biomedical questions with real-world applications. Additionally, I have experience in teaching and mentoring at the undergraduate level, fostering the next generation of scientists.
Beyond the lab, I am interested in science communication, data analysis, and translational research to improve health policies and disease interventions. I actively seek collaborations in biomedical research, exposure science, and environmental health to drive meaningful advancements in the field.
