Prepared and collected protein samples from dialysis machines then negatively stained samples on carbon grids for further analysis. Examined samples using the Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) to extract potential crystal images that will then be used for structural reconstruction to determine protein function. Independently carried out experiments with little supervision of a lab manager from preparing buffer solutions to protein analysis.
