Lab Experience

My work was specified mostly in protein-protein interactions analysis. I used yeast two-hybrid and bimolecular fluorescence complementation as the main tool. Meanwhile, I have operated many basic molecular biology experiments, from extraction and analysis of biological molecules to culture different genetic-modified organisms such as E. coli, yeast and plant protoplasts.

SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

I have a broad interest in many topics. In my master research, I focused mainly on protein-protein interactions in plant systems. I would like to further explore more about metabolites and metabolism in microorganism. I am also eager to study biological pathways by computational simulation. My goal is to understand the network of metabolites and related-genes.
