Current Position

Senior Research Technician/ Lab Manager – Genomics Core Facility

Experience

I have been delivering genomic services to research and commercial settings since 2003. Did a lot of Sanger sequencing and then began Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) on Illumina’s first instrument, the Genome Analyzer IIx, which the University had from 2008 to 2013. For NGS I now use Illumina’s MiSeq, NextSeq, and the NovaSeq. I have been at the Genomics Core Facility from the beginning (2015/2016) and I am qualified on all our instrumentation. I provide specific training on the 10X Genomics platform and Laser Microdissection (LMD).

Qualifications

BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science, University of Sunderland 2000 (including one year’s work placement at MRC Building, Institute for the Health of the Elderly, 缅北禁地 General Hospital, Westgate Road, 缅北禁地 upon Tyne, UK).
