• Provided scientific and technical support to conduct cell-based in vivo, leaf disk in vitro and whole plant in vivo assays conveying the bioavailability of novel agrochemicals in common crops, weeds and fungal.
• Collaborated with project leaders, to set operational priorities, establish internal networks and review protocols for efficiency whilst ensuring compliance with health, safety, and environmental (HSE) standards.
• Assays primarily investigated absorption and metabolism on Zymoseptoria tritici (Septoria leaf blotch), Zea mays (Maize), Triticum aestivum (Wheat) and Amaranthus retroflexus (Red-rooted pigweed).
• Absorption and metabolism data was primarily quantitated via an LC-MS approach to identify metabolites and characterise loss-of-parent compound.
• Metabolomics: Identifying changing endogenous metabolite signals of fungicides in Zymoseptoria tritici to uncover novel modes of actions using LC-MS and, MZmine 2 and 3.
• Mapping translocation of commercial herbicide, Bicyclopyrone using chlorophyll fluorescence imaging.

Singapore

Prepared daily forecast reports for 14 one-and-a-half-acre shrimp ponds within a section of the company’s hatchery. The forecast reports focused on whether the total revenue is projected for profit or loss by investigating factors including expected biomass value, survival rate (%), and date of culture.Quality assurance of UAL’s bio-molecular products on.

Singapore

Over the course of 8 weeks in 2020, I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Massimiliano Colla of the Singapore University of Technology and Design as an Hardware Biological Agri-tech intern. An algorithm was developed by our team to provide optimal growth conditions for vertical plantation crops using sensor modules. These sensor modules were capable of.
