Created workflows, guiding and providing necessary information, to support team member.
Assisted in designing and implementing course materials, including teaching slides, lecture noted, to align with the curriculum and learning objectives.
Providing guidance in the instructing and completion of bio-informatics projects, writing of manuscript and publications.
Collaborated with the course instructor and fellow teaching assistants and students to critically appraised the strength and weaknesses of assigned research projects and reported key finding
Evaluate and improve the effectiveness of teaching methods and course content after each cohort with other assistants.
Taught relevant modules, like introduction to Bioinformatics, Genomics and Next-Generation Sequencing, Structural Bioinformatics and Protein Modeling, Computational Systems Biology, Design of therapeutic peptides,
Identified research gaps in the diagnosis of Treponema pallidum subs. Pertenue, collaborate with a colleague at the lab to take up the project with awareness of lab founder, performed bio-informatics analysis and selected and analyzed immunogenic genes, and design a potential construct
Participated in production and synthesizing of the design peptide, Performed field analysis
Designed therapeutic peptides from plant sources, performed genomic studies of antimicrobial resistant Salmonella Typhi, participated in epidemiological studies, and insilco immunoinformatics studies around infectious diseases
Engaged in collaborative efforts with fellow assistants to raise awareness about NTDs. Visited educational institutions to enlighten young students about the transmission and prevention methods associated with these diseases.
Provided scheduled progress reports and extreme difficulties to supervisors on agreed timeframes
Performed extraction of DNA, gram-staining, antibiotics and antimicrobial resistance.
Worked on PDB format files, performed molecular docking, MD simulations using GROMACS
Analyzed the research data using statistical software, compiled a written report, and performed a power presentation of the key findings in a conference-style during the lab departmental event
