AMIT SHAH
Respected Sir/Madam,
I am looking for a challenging position in the field Clinical lab Science. My interest, education, and experience specifically qualify for a challenging administrative technical assignment in product development, quality control, chemical safety, and biohazard substances handling.
I have an excellent experience to work with DHMH state and CLIA laboratory inspection. Under my supervision, Clinical laboratory mostly gets 100% on proficiency testing. I have an experience working various automated chemistry analyzer, these include: Dionex DX 500 HPLC, Hewlet – Packard 5890 GC coupled with 5970 Quadrapole Mass Analyzer, Dimension EXL, Pentra XL 80, Thermofisher Exactive Q HF Series LC-MS/MS system, BacT & CA 500. I also have an experience with Tissue Culture, ELISA, Plasmid preparation, Western blot and Immunostaining techniques. I am a hard working, fast learner and want to improve my knowledge and skills through practical experience. I am currently working as a clinical lab supervisor and LIS administrator at Medstar Health Group. My knowledge of many laboratory instruments, administration, public speaking, and technical presentation is excellent and I am confident that these should prove valuable assets.
