Working in the Leeds Genetics Laboratory designing and running bioinformatic analyses for genetic diagnostics.Main projects include the design, development, deployment of local Clinical Interpretation tool, working with results from the 100,000 Genomes Project, and developing cloud-based pipelines for clinical analysis.

Completing the Scientist Training Programme specialising in Bioinformatics - GenomicsCo-lead for diagnostic bioinformatic processing at the Manchester Centre for Genomic Medicine.

Technical Lead for Deciphering Developmental Delay (DDD) confirmations.Developed qPCR as a clinical service for following up arrayCGH results.

Research and development of clinical assays for rare Mendelian disorders.Specialising in targeted panels for next generation sequencing and data analysis.

Responsible for preparing genomes for sequencing as part of the Core Sequencing team.Development of high throughput NGS library preparation.Created new library tracking systems for troubleshooting purposes.

Designing genotyping assays for use in paternity analysis.Gained experience in primer design, DNA extraction from eukaryotic organism, PCR and genotyping.

Responsible for day to day running of experiments at the industrial site. Designed procedures and analysed results. Collected turf samples which were prepared for analysis with mass spectrometry. Wrote a report for the managing director of Rolawn detailing the rational and results of the experiments carried out.

Provided technical support to other team members in the laboratory. Developed good laboratory practice working alongside senior technicians. Was responsible for replenishing bacterial stock library using bacterial transformation (via Qiagen mini-prep kit) and culturing using aseptic technique.
