Research Pharmacokinetics

• Assisted Principal Investigator and/or Team Leaders with their preclinical and translational studies requested by both external and internal clients• Performed a wide range of in vivo assays and analytics in conventional, immunocompromised and transgenic mouse colonies (PK/PD, PDX/tumor models, IVIS, Behavioral assays, Survival surgeries)• Performed various injections depending on study objectives (IP, IV, SC and PO)• Collected blood through various routes (RO, Tail Vein, Intracardiac puncture)• Harvested tissues/organs of interest• Adequately processed, labeled and shipped tissues/organs samples to clients• Proposed and executed adjustments to the experimental procedures and data analyses to increase data consistency and time efficiency

• Maintained conventional and transgenic mouse colonies for auditory research• Organized and facilitated the overall in-utero gene therapy projects• Extracted and purified of genomic DNA, and genotyped for various mice strains• IP Injection of tamoxifen in neonatal, juvenile and adult mice• Maintained accurate pre/post-operative records into relational database• Performed ABR and acoustic startle response tests under supervision• Harvested and dissected cochleae at different postnatal age (P8 to P44)• Performed immunofluorescence (IF) and confocal microscopy• Presented weekly mouse report to the team to discuss next plan• Effectively communicated and coordinated with Dr. Brigande and his colleagues weekly basis to efficiently complete significant tasks under strict facility regulations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

• Assisted Dr. Shatzel with his grant proposal for the clinical research on contact pathway factors (FXII/FXI) and the IRB approval to better understand Thrombotic Microangiopathy (TMA) using retrospective cohort studies.• Generated experimental data using anticoagulant drugs (FXII/FXI inhibitors) and human blood in flow adhesion and coagulometer assays.
