As a Consultant at IGEAY, a healthcare startup, I led a team to develop a 6-in-1 rapid test kit using Molecular Imprinted Polymer technology, improving the detection of disease strains. I fostered collaboration among diverse professionals, including a dentist who conceived the idea and a 3D printing expert from NYU, instrumental in product development. While IGEAY faces scaling challenges, I continue to provide strategic guidance. My experience there broadened my leadership skills and drove my decision to seek new opportunities, though I remain committed to IGEAY’s future success.

I worked alongside Dr. V.S. Ramachandran at The Center for Brain and Cognition at the University of California, San Diego. My contributions were primarily in the research on memory consolidation and unconscious object processing, which provided significant insights into our understanding of memory recognition. My responsibilities included preparing comprehensive technical documentation for our research, refining data collection protocols for improved precision, and creating engaging presentations that simplified complex research findings. Furthermore, I strictly followed established research protocols and utilized technology for innovative problem-solving, which helped resolve technological issues and smooth the conduct of seminars. I also guided personnel on how best to leverage test feedback, leading to enhanced productivity. My work at this esteemed neuroscience research hub, known for its groundbreaking work on phantom limbs and neuroplasticity, allowed me to contribute to the advancements in neuroscience.

I was fortunate enough to conduct critical research at the renowned Gage Lab at the Salk Institute, a leading institution acclaimed for its work on neurogenesis, neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders. My work there was primarily centered on stem cell engineering for Alzheimer's Disease, a vital area of study in today's neuroscience landscape. Through a scholarship I received from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), I had the opportunity to participate in a mentorship program at the Gage Lab. This enabled me to work alongside distinguished scientists, using state-of-the-art techniques and technologies to delve into this pivotal research area. A significant part of my role involved interviewing candidates and asking essential questions to help clarify data and experiment results. I was also entrusted with managing data-related requests from research faculty, a responsibility I took very seriously. In addition to these duties, I aided fellow researchers with data collection and interpretation, contributing to the lab's innovative research, particularly in the area of neurogenesis. Unfortunately, due to the impacts of COVID-19, my time at the lab was cut short. However, the knowledge and experiences I gained were invaluable. I even had the privilege of presenting my findings at a symposium, a testament to the quality and importance of the research conducted at the Gage Lab.
