DATA ANALYSIS:• Extracted, cleaned, and transformed image data and performed descriptive and exploratory analysis• Created data visualizations and presented findings to stakeholders• Pushed 1 TB of data/week through extract-transform-load (ETL) pipeline• Segmented cells to facilitate machine learningPROGRAM MANAGEMENT:• Coordinated stem cell line QC and cell morphology/health programs across teams• Reported progress monthly, ensured teams would meet deadlines, escalated issues as needed• Used Smartsheet to track milestones; scheduled and facilitated meetings between stakeholders• Identified and implemented opportunities to improve and streamline multi-team project activities• Prepared public-facing documentation for products; documented program progress• Wrote SOPs and content for websiteLAB SKILLS:• Performed live imaging, immunofluorescent staining, and western blots on newly edited human induced pluripotent stem cell lines to assess the gene edit and viability of the line • Assessed hiPS cell lines following differentiation into cardiomyocytes• Developed assays to evaluate cell states (e.g., created a pipeline-ready stress assay, optimized multiplex RNA FISH assays) • Performed extensive live and fixed imaging on confocal spinning disc microscopes (Zeiss, 3i) on hiPSCs, cardiomyocytes, and differentiating hiPSCs
