Dr Carter
Credentials:
Postdoctoral Researcher, University of Oxford
PhD, University of Cambridge

Fields/specialties:
Molecular biology, genetics and protein analysis
Intracellular signaling pathways
Proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation of myoblasts
Chromatin structure and modification

Description:
I have been a scientist for over 10 years and during my career I have specialized in several fields. For my PhD I studied intracellular signaling pathways in differentiating myoblasts at Cambridge University. I am experienced in many techniques involved with molecular and cellular biology; cloning, northern/western blotting, PFGE, EMSA, cell culture, transfection, ChIP, flow cytometry, luciferase and b-galactosidase assays, kinase assays and immunocyto/histochemistry. I am adaptable and enjoy learning about new fields and techniques.

I love to read and write about science, and have attended courses in scientific writing. My supervisors have always found my written work to be clear and well presented, and my protocols easy to follow, since I pay attention to detail and have a pleasant style. I have been involved in writing two of the papers on which I am a co-author, and I am currently working on two more. I have presented my work internationally and have entered several poster competitions.

I have studied French, German and Spanish (and attempted to speak a little Mandarin), and my social circle is full of people whose first language is not English. I feel this gives me an insight into English and how its grammar and sentence construction compare to other languages.

Description:
I am a Post-Doctorate researcher in the Physiology Department of Oxford University, with research interests in the effect of protein mutations in muscle disease (skeletal and cardiac) and in the mechanism of action of drugs for treating heart failure. I have a wide range of experience in various methods for studying muscle function at the cellular level. I have been editing and proof-reading papers, presentations and theses for many years, and it is a personal bugbear of mine that scientific documents should be clear, concise and to the point.

Dr Trainor
Credentials:
Bachelor of Applied Science (BASc) in Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry, University of Toronto
PhD in Engineering Science, University of Oxford

Fields/specialties:
Chemical Engineering
Biomedical Engineering
Stem Cell Research
Biomaterials

Description:
I have a PhD in Engineering Science. My project focuses on the design of a bioreactor for the growth of mesenchymal stem cells (derived from human bone marrow) in a three dimensional scaffold. Prior to my time at Oxford University, I studied Chemical Engineering at the University of Toronto. My undergraduate thesis involved research to determine the sequence and expression of trapped genes in mouse embryonic stem cells after exposure to hypoxia, irradiaton, and retinoic acid. This was performed in conjunction with Mount Sinai Hospital. I have also spent some time working at the head branch of a biomedical engineering company based in Canada. My primary responsibilities here included the development of bone scaffolds to be used for clinical and research markets, the redesign of the manufacturing line for scale-up purposes and up-scaling and increasing the success rate of the production of thin-film bone cell culture disks to be used for the testing of skeletal drugs.

Literary based experience includes the development of standardized protocols for the culture of human mesenchymal stem cells. This is one of my responsibilities as a Research Assistant for the Department of Engineering Science at Oxford University. Previously, I have worked for Queen’s University (Canada) doing literary research in Classical Greek history. Additionally, I have presented a paper at the annual Canadian Society for Chemical Engineers conference in conjunction with a written competition. I was accepted to proceed to the provincial division for a paper I presented at the University of Toronto Engineering Competitions.

In addition to having completed a course in communications, my role as the Vice President of Communications for the University of Toronto Engineering Class of 2005, my former position as a teaching assistant, as well as being a representative of the University of Toronto at various conferences ensures that I able to maintain my communication skills.
