I am a research scholar with several years of experience in biotechnology, molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, and general biology sectors. I completed my Ph.D. (doctorate) from Monash University, Australia, after which I worked as a post-doctoral scientist at Monash University. I then moved to the United States, working as a post-doctoral scientist and Research Fellow at the University of Minnesota and the University of Michigan, respectively.
I have practical laboratory experience and can give students the best knowledge and practical skills to excel in their careers and stand in today's competitive world.

Interactive learning with practical examples and scientific discussions, a student can experience scientific principles in simple ways. Scientific classes will be given to a range of students, from young to postgraduate students. Mostly, online classes will be preferred. However, face-to-face classes can be rendered in some cases. The most important aspect is the personal approach to student learning; in my classes, a free personal development session before and after each class will be provided for effective learning.

I have taught biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, microbiology and biotechnology in various roles at Monash University and the University of Melbourne, Australia, for about ten years and wish to share my scientific experience with science students.

    Duties include expressing and purifying isotopically labelled (uniformly 2H, 15N, and 13C) and selectively labelled regulins and studying them in complex with SERCA using high-field solid-state NMR.
  • Teaching staff (Mar, 2020–Jul, 2021) at University of Melbourne
    • Delivering pre and post-practical lectures
    • Conducting laboratory practicals, workshops, tutorials and examinations in the areas of biochemistry, molecular biology, microbiology, and cell biology
    • Marking student’s assignments and examination papers
    • Practical teaching demonstrator (both in online classes and face-to-face laboratory sessions)
    • Took an Educational Research Assistant role to create exemplar assignments at the University of Melbourne
    • Designed an Assessment Literacy Tool (as part of a Curriculum Improvement Strategy) at the University of Melbourne
    • Developing laboratory protocols and making amendments to the teaching material where required.
  • Post-doctoral Scientist (May, 2016–Jan, 2020) at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia
    1) Expressing and purifying recombinant proteins for solution NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography; 2) Live-cell imaging of stem cells using Confocal and Bright-field microscopy.
  • Teaching Associate (Jun, 2008–Jun, 2019) at Monash university, australia
    Taught molecular biology, microbiology, biochemistry and immunology to 2nd and 3rd year Bachelor of Pharmacy students.
