Postdoctoral Researcher, Laboratory of Prof Laurence Zitvogel- Engaged in pioneering cancer immunotherapy research, with a focus on exploring the intricate role of the gut microbiome in cancer progression and therapy outcomes.- Spearheading a project to elucidate how microbial populations within the gut influence the efficacy of cancer therapies, aiming to.

Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia

My PhD project has two principal aims. First, investigate how the gut microbiome influences the outcome of immune checkpoint blockade antibody therapy. I am using advanced DNA sequencing technology to investigate a novel theory that I recently published (PMID 33147357), which involves bacteria escaping the gut and infecting solid tumours. My second aim is.

I was employed by the Borevitz Lab Group to investigate a novel quantitative trait locus found in Arabidopsis thaliana (PMID 31276082). The work involves knowledge and implementation of molecular biology and advanced computational biology techniques. Furthermore, I was able to implement novel technologies such as the MinION, a small mobile phone-sized DNA.

Palo Alto, California, United States

I worked in the laboratories of Professor Yueh-Hsiu Chien and Professor Mark Davis. My responsibilitiesincluded assisting Dr Qian Yin, a postdoctoral researcher in the Davis Laboratory, with their experimentsand conducting my own investigations for my PhD. Through this experience, I gained a deeperunderstanding of immunology and hands-on experience with.

Canberra, Australia

I supported the delivery and teaching of laboratory practical classes for undergraduate biology andimmunology students by grading lab reports, providing demonstrative presentations on laboratory methods, and evaluating final assessments.

• I accepted an appointment to the USNA with the personal referral of then-US Vice President Joe Biden and was therefore commissioned into the United States Navy. I held the following leadership positions:
• Company conduct officer – I was responsible for investigating and representing my fellow company-mates if they were accused of any misdemeanours.
• Company commander – I was tasked to lead 150 of my peers during a military exercise. This included moving them safely across the Eastern United States to several military bases located in Georgia, Virginia, South.

I worked on construction sites making steel columns for concrete during my summers off from high school to earn a little extra money and gain real-life work experience. It was hard work, but it taught me a lot.
