• Consult with doctors on their clinical treatment designs for implants with the use of CBCT 3D imaging software and surgical guides (medical device)• Provide effective training for doctors and clinical staff on sophisticated 3D imaging software (Invivo) and the medical device applications of surgical guides through web meetings, trade shows and live surgery courses• Assist doctors with developing implant treatment solutions ranging from single implant to multiple implant cases for bridges and large implant supported prosthesis/appliances• Help doctors plan and implement advance surgical procedures such as bone grafting, direct/lateral sinus lifts, alveolar bone ridge reductions and ridge splitting and preservation techniques• Control and oversee various aspects of the surgical guide production from its initial software design to lab work and fabrication• Effectively handle large incoming communications for treatment planning, clinical and technical support

• Executed a two-hybrid screen to inquire new protein-protein interactions and to gain more insight into Pch2 checkpoint protein functions during meiosis in budding yeast• Further investigated Pch2 and positive protein interactors that were detected using two-hybrid screen by conducting additional assays• Generated knockouts strains for each positive interaction with PCR-based gene deletion using drug resistance cassettes• Performed meiotic time course assays to study the progression through Meiosis I and phenotype of each knockout strain
