According to the data mapping, selected and extracted samples from a list of raw dataset, eliminated duplicates, created a one-subject-per-row dataset with PROC SQL.
With given requirement, established segmentation for the behavior of customer with PROC FORMAT based on their credit score. Applied this segmentation on all selected samples.
Defined new variables and assigned different designated values to them based on campaign matrix using CASE expression in PROC SQL, derived product information for each customer.
For all numeric variables, performed data quality check with PROC MEANS and PROC FREQ, focusing on minimum, maximum, and missing values. Did correction for errors and marked missing value.
With PROC UNIVARIATE, checked extreme values for the dataset and did correction to the errors.
For all character variables, checked data quality with PROC FREQ. Found invalid and missing values. Corrected invalid values and assigned supposed value to the missing ones.
Created a format to separate valid data from invalid data with PROC FORMAT. Applied this format to the whole dataset.
Quality Assistant, AIE Pharmaceutical Inc. Jul.2013-Sep.2014
Planning production schedules on weekly basis. Completed over 30 products monthly on average.
Overseeing production operators, including training, periodic performance reviews and day-to-day supervision.
Participating in new product development based on customer need.
Knowledge of FDA regulations and cGMP. Periodically review and modify Company & Equipment SOPs to provide guidance and ensure safety for all personnel.
Managing inventory to prevent missing and loss through production.
Performing lab test for finishing products, including FTIR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Approving Certificate of Analysis for every finishing product.
Investigating quality issues and resolving customer complaint.
Handling finishing products shipment.
SAS Project, Clemson Experimental Statistical Class Jan.2013-May.2013 Conduct a survey in school examining a hypothesis if there are differences of the scores between male and female students, and investigating the relationship between study time and exam score. Responsibilities:
Designed and conducted survey in school library. Input survey results into excel file. Using PROC IMPORT step to generate SAS datasets from excel file.
Organized SAS datasets according to descending exam score with PROC SORT step.
Calculated means, standard deviations, and variances of variable exam score and study time with PROC UNIVARIATE step.
Based on hypothesis there is difference of score between male and female students. Ran t-test on SAS with PROC TTEST step. The result showed p-value greater than 0.5 and hypothesis rejected.
Presented score-time relation chart with PRCO GPLOT step.
Based on score-time chart, using PROC CORR to determine the correlation between score and time.
Developed a model between score and time with PROC REG function and checked the model assumption: if score range is normal distribution with PROC UNIVARIATE fuction. Laboratory Assistant, Clemson Bioengineering Department Sep.2011-May.2013
Focused research on co-culture application between macrophages and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerotic calcification: using multiple models (Transwell, directly contact, conditioned medium) co-culturing SMCs and macrophages, extracting DNA, designing primer for genes (TNF-α, Runx2, and etc.), and gel electrophoresis. Analyzed the roles of SMCs and macrophages and their interactions in the cardiovascular disease according to related genes expression. Established thorough co-culture methods to conduct research and finished a thesis of this area.
Major focused on tissue engineer &biomaterial. Had experience in both labs and acquired basic skills to perform most cell tissue experiments. Curriculums included biomechanics, transportation, and statistics, etc. Education
