- Invented and patented square beams for transmission electron microscopes.- Operating Tecnai and Krios microscopes for cryo-EM screening and high resolution single-particle and tomography data collection.- Pioneered grid preparation and screening program to provide resources for users with no cryo-EM access or expertise. - Consulting with and training scientists in cryo-EM methods including sample preparation, data collection, processing, analysis, and model building.- Leading and participating in working groups to explore and establish cutting edge cryo-EM technologies at NYSBC including graphene grids, live processing, and machine learning applications.

London, United Kingdom

- Determined the first high-resolution structure of the 14-protein chromatin remodelling complex SWR1 by using cryo-EM. - Collaborating with single molecule physicists to design experiments for investigating SWR1 function. - Used biochemical and biophysical fluorescence-based assays including MST, plate reader assays, and SEC-MALS to study protein-DNA interactions and enzyme kinetics.

Singapore

- Breakthrough single particle analysis of nucleosomes imaged by using cryo-EM with phase plates.- Collaborated with NVIDIA on GPU benchmarking of cryo-EM data processing. - Worked within an international consortium of researchers funded by a S$24 million grant for investigating telomere dynamics.

Doctor Of Philosophy - Phd, Structural Biology

- Discovered how a novel anti-cancer designer drug interacts with chromatin. - Characterized the properties of a DNA sequence used.
