August 2011 M.Sc., Microbiology and Immunology, University of Western Ontario May 2008 B.Sc. (Hons), Molecular Biology and Microbiology, University of Toronto WORK EXPERIENCE

June 2015 – June 2020, Research Associate

Singapore Centre for Environmental Life Sciences Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

May 2013 – June 2015, Technical Scientist

RIKEN Center for Life Science Technologies, Yokohama, Japan October 2011 – August 2012, Translator

RELEVANT RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

June 2015 – June 2020

Singapore Centre for Environmental Life Sciences Engineering, Singapore Our project focuses on identifying microorganisms that are within the air microbiome, both indoors and outdoors. A metagenomics approach is employed to determine the composition of this understudied environment. Complementing this, classical microbiological, molecular biology and microscopy techniques are being adapted to corroborate the bioinformatic data. Additionally, a patient cohort with lung disease is currently being investigated to determine if a link between the air and lung microbiome exists.

Selected list of relevant skills and responsibilities

Investigating feasibility of single cell sorting and downstream whole genome sequencing

Responsible for organizing a joint research collaboration agreement between Nanyang Technological University and the University of British Columbia (patient cohort/air microbiome joint study)

Responsible for tender process for a new scanning electron microscope

Training of interns and new staff on sample preparation and microscope use (light/EM)

Using light and electron microscopy to further project goals Page 2 of 9

May 2013 – June 2015

RIKEN CLST, Division of Genomic Technologies, Yokohama, Japan In order to analyze and quantify differential gene expression at the single cell level, our team worked towards developing a proof of principle to quantify expression of multiple genes using in situ bridge PCR amplification coupled with reverse transcription. Using TIRF microscopy, detection of single DNA/RNA molecules was possible. Additionally, I concurrently worked on a project involving automated high throughput screening of anti-sense oligonucleotides in human iPS cells.

Selected list of relevant skills and responsibilities

Light microscopy (confocal, TIRF)

Sourcing of microscope equipment and basic maintenance

Culturing/maintenance of human iPS cells

September 2009 – August 2011

University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario

Thesis title: Role of capsular modified heptose in the virulence of Campylobacter jejuni. In this project, I investigated differential capsular expression in various Campylobacter jejuni strains and also the role modified heptoses play. The creation and characterization of modified- heptoseless C. jejuni mutants both genetically and phenotypically was also carried out. SUPERVISORY EXPERIENCE

2018 – 2020

Supervising Phu Pwint Thin Hlaing, hired as a research assistant, on a day-to-day basis 2017 – 2018

Supervised Phu Pwint Thin Hlaing and Merrilyn Eng, final year students from Temasek Polytechnic.
