PhD in Biology | Expertise: Muscle Biology, Neurodegeneration, Disease models, CRISPR editing

Profile Summary

With a PhD and Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology and co-author of 20 publications, I have a strong eye for detail, thorough command of manuscript structure, and strong commitment to scientific rigor. My areas of expertise include the ubiquitin-proteasome system, cardiac and skeletal muscle biology, neurodegeneration mechanisms, gene editing, and in vivo/in vitro disease modeling. I’m passionate about helping authors enhance the clarity, accuracy, and impact of their work for publication in high-impact journals.
