RESEARCH EXPERIENCES

l   Downstream Analysis for Database of Cancer Single-cell Expression Map   01/2024- present

Intern, Supervisor: Prof. Jingfa Xiao, China National Center for Bioinformation   Beijing, China

Ø  Constructed new analysis functions into the online Cancer Single-cell Expression Map (CancerSCEM) platform, focusing on downstream analysis of datasets and setting of control datasets for cancer datasets.

Ø  Tested and evaluated clustering, trajectory inference, and RNA velocity algorithms for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets.

Ø  Collected, processed, and archived raw datasets of control group samples (adjacent normal tissue/PB) of cancer from various databases, followed by mapping them to the cancer datasets and preparing metadata.

l   Microorganism in the Pond of Fontainebleau Forest (3-person group, leader)   07/2023- 08/2023

Research Assistant, Supervisor: Prof. Sylvain Fisson, Paris-Saclay University    Paris, France

Ø  Conducted visits to the ponds in the Fontainebleau Forest, sampling and analyzing eukaryote and bacteria content, with a focus on photoautotrophs and gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria.

Ø  Isolated and cultured the bacteria in the water sample, and selected a colony and cultivated it on selective culture media MacConkey Agar medium, Chapman medium and Eosin Methylene Blue Agar (EMB) respectively for multiple identification.

Ø  Applied analytical tests (API OF test, gram staining, oxidase test)  for bacterial characterization and identification.

l   Construction and Testing of a Simple Potentiostat (5-person group, leader)   07/2022- 07/2023

Research Assistant, Supervisor: Prof. Houjin Zhang, HUST    Wuhan, China

Ø  Aimed to create an open-source potentiostat with high measurement quality, user-friendliness, and expandability to address shortcomings of existing commercial potentiostats.

Ø  Circuit design: following the cyclic voltammetry measurement method, tested measurement relationship between the three electrodes, then performed circuit design and PCB fabrication.

Ø  Programming: according to the circuit, configured ports, designed relevant mathematical functions, and designed Arduino program for instrument control and data acquisition/output.

Ø  3D printing: modeled the frame of the potentiostat to the specific dimensions of each component, 3D printed the model and assembled it.

SELECTED COURSE PROJECT

l   Database System Experiment   08/2023-12/2023

Ø  Designed databases to encompass core functions, including security control, integrity control, recovery mechanism, and concurrency control.

Ø  Defined and constrained datasets, then implemented data queries and processing operations.
