What I Do
Proteomics Meets Artificial Intelligence
Proteomics Research
Mass spectrometry-based proteomics (DIA/DDA), PTM enrichment (phospho, glyco, cysteine), biomarker discovery from serum/plasma, label-free & isobaric quantification.
AI/ML for Drug Discovery
LLM-based data extraction (Llama, Gemini, Claude) from ClinicalTrials.gov & PubChem, Python automation for biocuration, ML pipeline development, agile collaboration with data engineers.
Product & Project Management
Developing biomarker module that underpins target identification, indication prioritisation, and clinical trial prediction, stakeholder management.
