We work to help pharmaceutical companies assess the effects of their drug candidates on the human immune system by use of our custom ID.Flow system which mimics the human circulatory system. In order to quantify this effect, I perform a wide range of techniques, including, but not limited to, ELISA, MSD and flow cytometry. I am also one of the lab team.

Uppsala, Uppsala County, Sweden

Performing the laboratory analysis elements of the Stockholm3 Prostate cancer diagnostic test. I primarily worked with protein analysis using the BRAHMS Kryptor instrument and the ELISA method, which replaced the previously used PLA. I was involved with the development, implementation and optimisation of ELISA as a diagnostic procedure. This position.

• Usage and programming of laboratory robots
• Optimisation experiment design, analysis and documentation

Uppsala, Uppsala County, Sweden

• Researching non-genomic forms of antimicrobial resistance in Giardia intestinalis. My work focussed particularly on the initial acquisition of resistance in the parasite. This work requires the use of a range of.
• Cell culture
• RNA extraction and purification
• Drug Sensitivity Assays
• The design and implementation of novel experimental procedures
• Data collection and processing

Uppsala, Sweden

Studying the development of antimicrobial resistance in the human pathogen, Giardia intestinalis.In this project, I performed drug susceptibility assays for a range of antimicrobial agents against the human parasite, Giardia intestinalis. From this data it was possible to obtain IC50 values for the effective drugs, including some not previous known to have.
