From: Arzu Ozturk Sent: July 30, 2014 5:34 PM To: Chris Anderson Subject: To arrange a meeting
Dear Dr. Christopher Anderson, I have been working with Dr. Geoff Hicks for FASD research project and enjoyed learning in depth of brain development and neurodegenerative disease. I am looking for potential position(s) as a research associate and/or project manager to carry on a given challenging projects and/or to allow me to use my expertise in research on neurodegenerative disease. Post-doctoral experience on multi-disciplinary fields;
1. Identification of non-coding RNA targets of RNA binding protein FUS, and their role in vivo and modulation of direct targets in generated animal mouse model system related to human disease and cancer
2. Development of novel gene targeting and tagging techniques to generate knock-out and conditional, and GFPs, mCherry, Biotin-tagged gene of interest of transgenic animal model system for molecular signaling pathways in immune response and cancer progression.
3. Specializing from manipulation of mouse stem cell (mSCs), induced pluripotent stem cell (miPS) and embryonic body formation (mEB) to construction and design of large scale vector construction system using latest recombineering technology tools Undertook PhD at Department of Physiology, U of MANITOBA. I specialized on gene regulation to dissect mechanisms of regulatory factors involved in rPlacental Lactogen II gene regulation and expression during placental development using molecular biology, proteomics and generation of transgenic mice model system in vivo Completed M.Sc. at Faculty of Medicine, Department of Medical Biology and Genetics, U of AKDENIZ. I was specialized as a human cytogeneticist on diagnosis of structural chromosome analysis in blood and bone marrow associated disease and cancer as well as breast and lung cancer. In parallele, I took a role in establishment of protocols and methods to advance the pre-clinical screening applications (diagnostics). In addition, I worked as clinical geneticist in medical research. My profession practice includes; - Hands on extensive expertise in gene editing/modification tools and manipulation of any given protein and non-protein coding genes - Performing cellular, molecular biology, proteomics and stem cell technologies - Generation and phenotyping of transgenic mice - Design and planning proposals and literature analysis - Grant writing and reviewing (including fellowship proposals) - Conducting clinical and basic research projects, and complies with the anticipated time line - Managing members of a given research team, training and supervising students - Eager to learn and establish new protocols and efficiency in independent work
I have generated a number of transgenic mice that can be utilized for future and I would like to explore the potential use of them if applicable. I would be very glad to have the opportunity to meet. I attached my CV if you would consider to interview. Thank you for your time and looking forward to hear from you.
