Über mich
International experienced Research Scientist with a demonstrated history of working skills in Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, and Host-pathogen Interactions. My work focuses on understanding the complex mechanism of human-pathogen interactions and how they promote infectious diseases. This research project highlights the potential benefit of investigating the molecular mechanism of bacterial toxins and host responses to serve as an initiative to develop new therapeutic approaches. I am currently seeking an opportunity to work in the industry where I can apply my scientific knowledge to make a direct impact to improve the quality of human life.
