Send a job offer directly to this candidate
An enthusiastic microbiologist and a dedicated researcher specializing in environmental microbiology. My expertise lies in applying advanced genome-resolved metagenomics, comparative genomics, and transcriptomics to address pivotal aspects of microbial diversity, ecology, evolution, and pathogenesis. I am deeply passionate about investigating plant-microbe interactions within the rhizosphere using advanced lab-based and genome-based methodologies.
Postdoctoral Researcher. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), USA. 2023-2025
Analyzed and visualized multi-omics datasets (metagenomics, RNA-seq) to identify functional roles and adaptive mechanisms in microbial communities.
Collaborated with multidisciplinary teams of geneticists, bioinformaticians, and software engineers to integrate and harmonize complex datasets.
Developed scalable workflows for functional genomic studies.
Graduate Research Assistant. Oklahoma State University. USA. 2017-2022
Built and optimized bioinformatics pipelines for analyzing large-scale genetic datasets, focusing on
GWAS and transcriptomic data (RNA-seq).
Conducted genome-wide analyses to study metabolic pathways & adaptations in microbial communities.
Applied statistical methods to evaluate and visualize omics data, enabling biological insights for target discovery.
Demonstrated expertise in Linux-based tools, cloud computing (AWS Batch), and scripting languages (Python, Bash).
Ph.D. in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. Oklahoma State University (OSU), USA. 2017- 2022
