- EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
With more than 20+ years of genomics experience, I have focused on exceptional customer service and account management and have a demonstrated achievement record of spearheading fast-growing life sciences programs in start-up environments. I have initiated alternative Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) strategies and client-focused solutions for academia, government, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.
I have combined my business and technical knowledge to successfully identify consumer needs and solve complex genomics problems through internal and external collaborations and strong working relationships at all levels.
I have provided expertise in experimental planning and procedures and work collaboratively with researchers for processing the most challenging sample types by next generation sequencing.

Expression Profiling Using Affymetrix GeneChips® Probe Arrays
Cardiac Gene Expression : Methods and Protocols; Humana Press (2007)
Martina Schinke-Braun, Jennifer A. Couget
Large-scale microarray expression profiling studies have helped us to understand basic biological processes and to classify and predict the prognosis of cancers; they have also accelerated the identification of new drug targets. Affymetrix GeneChip® probe arrays are high-density oligonucleotide microarrays that are available for many prokaryotic and eukaryotic species.
