Designed and performed end-to-end protocol to understand and contrast virulence determinants in M. tuberculosis strains. Used SRA toolkit, NCBI, R and Python for differential gene expression analysis. Identified increased trehalose production, iron chelation, whiB and ESAT-6 overproduction as main virulence determinants.

Contributed through scientific background to validate information underlying business model development based on dignity and atomic-level principles. Provided consulting services in software development, data capture integration, and data analysis to support company monitoring progress. Explored new tools for technology integration in business infrastructure development. Tech stack: Python, R, SQL.

Clarified the origin of virulence in the most problematic tuberculosis strain through differential gene expression analysis. Used R, Python, NCBI. View Notebook and Full Repository available.

Designed synthetic biology protocol to produce meroterpenes (cannabinoids) in S. cerevisiae yeast. Performed DNA extraction, primer design, electrophoresis, restriction enzymes, and reported results in written and oral formats.

Lab maintenance, inventory management, experiment design.
