My passion has always been in linking molecular biology with commercial considerations. I have been actively involved in Clinical NGS and developing In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) products specifically designed for cancer.CORE EXPERIMENTAL COMPETENCIES:* NGS library preparation (Illumina, Twistbioscience, Agilent, Swift, KAPA, NEB)* NGS sequencing (Novaseq series, Nextseq series)* Microarray (Illumina GenomeStudio analysis)* qPCR/RT-PCR* DNA/RNA extraction (from FFPE, tissue, blood, microbiology)PROJECTS:* NGS assay optimization for cancer-specific marker discovery based on liquid biopsy (mutation, methylation)* IVD development of cancer early detection (CED) for commercial launch* Regulatory compliance for developing colon cancer IVD following FDA, CE, and MFDS (Korea) regulations* Preparation of clinical laboratory operations in compliance with CAP standards* Preparation of clinical laboratory operations in compliance with Japan Registered Clinical Laboratories* Development of LIS (Laboratory Information System) for clinical NGSWHY ME:* Strong knowledge of NGS methods, products, and applications* Hands-on experience with large-scale genomic methods such as whole genome sequencing, exome sequencing, target enrichment, and RNA sequencing* Proficiency in molecular biology techniques including DNA purification, DNA quantification, and PCR* Familiarity with CAP compliance for NGS applications
