I work as front of house staff and help with preparing and decorating baked goods. I handle the till and speak to customers, ensuring that they feel welcome.

Within this exciting role, I carried out research using different bioinformatics software and databases in order to better understand the glycoside hydrolyse family GH174. I first created a predictive model of a particular GH174 protein using AlphaFold and analysed it through homologue comparison via FoldSeek. I also carried out electrostatic, conservation and sequence based analyses.Following the production of a confident AlphaFold model, I was able to carry out ligand docking… Show more Within this exciting role, I carried out research using different bioinformatics software and databases in order to better understand the glycoside hydrolyse family GH174. I first created a predictive model of a particular GH174 protein using AlphaFold and analysed it through homologue comparison via FoldSeek. I also carried out electrostatic, conservation and sequence based analyses.Following the production of a confident AlphaFold model, I was able to carry out ligand docking exercises using Webina, facilitating a better comprehension of the protein’s mechanism of action. This internship allowed for me to develop so many new skills and was a truly fascinating experience. Show less

I work as both a waitress and bartender.
