Tissue culture and mechanisms of therapies, oxidative stress, DNA damage mechanisms and measurement, DNA repair mechanisms, clinical and experimental studies

I did my PhD in a world-renowned university department; with significant experience in laboratories/clinical researches and in medical teaching. Having experience in the field of clinical biochemistry and molecular studies enabled me to work and publish advanced research articles in one of the top one journals in the world., I am skillful in Laboratory medicine, Laboratory data analysis and interpretation, clinical case studies and scenario design, leading the small group discussion, postgraduate teaching, Large group lecture., During my PhD study I had intensive English training courses for academic purposes at the University of Nottingham and the University of Leicester (Insessional Academic English)., I have experience in statistic and medical data analysis using SPSS and PrismGraph software., I have good experience to use different computer programs including Excel, Microsoft word, Microsoft power point.

Supervised two MSc students

I am an assistant professor of clinical biochemistry and molecular medicine working as a medical instructor and researcher with experience in integrating objective researches related to clinical biochemistry, cancer studies and molecular medicine. I have been working as a head of phase-I of medical integrated system and teaching two integrated modules.
