 Coordinated research and development activities supporting the portfolio of Molecular and Synthetic Biology Tools products  Assembled a team of 5 scientists and managed their activities focused on product development and optimization  Engaged in productive worldwide communication with numerous teams via e-mail, phone and teleconference  Cooperated actively in processes of technology scouting

 Planned, managed and supervised R&D projects focused on the production and analytical characterization of Biologicals (e.g. scFv antibodies, human hormones)  Established effective communication with clients and potential customers in person, via e-mail and phone  Supervised of team 5 scientists  Prepared and presented project progress reports to clients  Elaborated project proposals requested by clients and generated scientific data reports

 Provided training to 6 research teams on recombinant expression and purification of chemokines relevant to Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia  Efficiently administered 2 university laboratory courses and taught fundamental research principles to 60 undergraduate students  Generated, analyzed and published scientific results on the effect of HIV-1 infectivity upon depletion of a human co-factor protein

 Designed and coordinated projects focused on the study of key proteins required for proper DNA repair  Implemented cell, molecular and biochemical approaches (e.g. cell line development, gene cloning and mutation, etc.) to elucidate DNA double-strand break repair  Effectively analyzed scientific results and communicated findings via research article and poster presentations  Demonstrated leadership and time management by coordinating a project in collaboration with a Canadian laboratory

 Planned and conducted studies focused on cancer-related epigenetic changes due to protein post-translational modifications  Applied multiple techniques (e.g. Chromatin Immunoprecipitation-qPCR, RT-qPCR) to reveal the role played by SUMOylation in the process of modulating the recruitment of a KDM5B to its target genes  Performed data analysis, elaborated and published an article and presented 2 posters at conferences  Elaborated research proposals which resulted in the award of 2 fellowships

 Designed and performed multiple projects to study distinct cellular proteins during HIV-1 infection  Implemented numerous methods (e.g. lentiviral production/transduction, cell-based assays, flow cytometry) to conduct projects that resulted in the publication of 4 articles and presentation of 8 posters at conferences  Efficiently managed time by concomitantly working as a research and teaching assistant  Provided competent teaching of 3 undergraduate courses offered to a total of 90 students
