Werdegang

Berufserfahrung von Shuaizhi Du

  • 6 Monate, Aug. 2022 - Jan. 2023

    Research Associate

    Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research

    1. Conducted in-depth data analysis, publishing a manuscript in "Endocrinology" on steroid hormone-induced responses in oviduct epithelial cells. 2. Contributed to the setup of a cell lab, refining SOPs for 3D cell culture and molecular assays, ensuring regulatory compliance. 3. Co-trained junior students in molecular techniques (e.g., RT-qPCR( and collaborated on immunoassay development for sex steroid detection in diverse materials, emphasizing SOP adherence, data integrity, and metabolic evaluation.

  • 4 Jahre und 8 Monate, Dez. 2017 - Juli 2022

    Doctoral Student

    Research-Institute for Farm Animal Biology

    1. Research topic (Fertility impairment by maternal stress: impact of cortisol on oviduct epithelium functions). 2. Proficiently isolated, cultured, and characterized primary oviduct epithelial cells, and replicated the oviduct epithelium preserving in vivo physiological properties. 3. Conducted molecular and immune assays (e.g., RT-qPCR and ELISA), and examined the morphological, bioelectrical, transcriptomic, and proteomics response of cells to hormonal (cortisol, estradiol, and progesterone) exposure.

  • 2 Jahre und 4 Monate, Juli 2015 - Okt. 2017

    Veterinary Vaccine R&D Project Manager

    Qilu Animal Health Products Co., Ltd

    1. Led collaborative veterinary vaccine projects, ensuring scientific integrity and regulatory compliance. 2. Directed a 4-member team, specializing in the pre-clinical vaccine studies, with a focus on SOPs and GLP compliance. 3. Contributed to research plan design, overseeing experimental vaccine manufacturing in cell bioreactors for pre-clinical testing. 4. Reviewed study reports, maintained data documentation, adhered to GLPs, and contributed to GMPs compliance, QA testing, and regulatory affairs.
