An experienced scientist with expertise in molecular parasitology, gelling around with databook and pipettes right from B.Sc days!Contributed to a novel study describing the trafficking of a nuclear protein through the secretory pathway in malarial parasite, Plasmodium falciparum; resulting in a first authored publication. Participated in the study of serine pathway in Trichomonas vaginalis by biochemical characterization and crystallization of recombinant proteins, leading to a co-authored publication as a Master's student.Key skills include:Gene-cloning, q-PCR, protein expression and purification, Western blotting, Immunoprecipitation, ChIP, protein pull-down assays and genomic taggingAntibody generation in mice, mass spectrometry sample preparation, fluorescence and confocal imaging, electron microscopy and FACS.Plasmodium falciparum cell culture, transfection, endogenous tagging; Yeast cell culture, transformation, complementation assays.Mammalian cell culture, transfection
