Led research and development efforts associated with the preclinical modeling shared resource including transgenic & PDX model production and technology development to support center wide drug discovery efforts with a staff of 4FTE.

Established a functional laboratory and led a transgenic model production and germline maintenance team of 2 FTE.

Supported CRISPR/Cas9 technology development and stakeholder management efforts of core facility staffed with 2FTE to create the mouse models of human diseases.

Led a pioneering genetic study aimed at identifying causal infertility variants. By harnessing the synergies of CRISPR/Cas9 technology, genomics, and population data within genes associated with human disease, I spearheaded an effort to pinpoint causal infertility variants and potential therapeutic targets, with the overarching goal of advancing fertility management. • Developed technology to identify causal infertility variants leading to the early results published in top tier journal. This breakthrough was recognized by the Genome Advance of the Month magazine by NIH and subsequently secured funding from federal resources.• Fostered and cultivated both internal and external relationships to garner support for research initiatives from the broader research teams. • Research outcomes garnered recognition, including the receipt of the best poster award, travel grants, and 9 peer-reviewed research articles, all contributing to the advancement of knowledge in the field. Additionally, being selected as a top 5 Finalist for the Regeneron Prize for Creative Innovation, coupled with a $5K prize, underscored the impact of the work.

Led a graduate research project focused on studying DNA damage and repair responses during male germline development following exposure to exogenous damaging agents.• Developed a simple and accurate microscopy-based method for assessing DNA damage and repair kinetics, tailored specifically for evaluating the sensitivity of the male germline to exogenous damages. This work resulted in a publication featured on the cover page of the journal. • Mentored undergraduate and graduate students for their project completion. • Gained knowledge and expertise in mouse gametogenesis research, creating a foundation for future scientific investigations.

Research on topic entitled "DNA double strand break repair in mouse male germ cells"

Academic project undertaken as master’s degree program involved supporting a research initiative aimed at isolating and characterizing a novel bacterial species responsible for sepsis in Guinea Pigs. Outcomes were submitted for the completion of undergraduate studies.
