Profile
Biomedical Engineer with experience as a Research Lab Assistant and Physician-Laboratory Assistant with Patient Interaction; these occurred in a drug delivery academic research lab and an international hospital in Beijing, China. I have expended my knowledge in research procedure and clinical application; such as development of ion-based drug delivery, recording of drug release, analyzing data coming from drug delivery and loading profile, and testing of biological fluids. My professional objective is to continue developing my knowledge and expertise within Research and Development, by entering a company or lab that focuses on the research and development of prosthetics, implants, or other machines for human or biological use and earn a MS in Biomechanical Engineering or similar field.
