What you’ll be able to do

  • Employ effective scientific communication methods demonstrating knowledge and skills when: writing scientific papers, preparing detailed scientific protocols, critiquing scientific journal articles in drug discovery, and developing and presenting detailed scientific presentations.

  • Determine how protein kinase and cytochrome P450 enzyme assay technologies are used in the drug discovery process.

  • Perform and evaluate multiple assay formats (luminescent, fluorescent, colorimetric) including, but not limited to: Cytochrome P450 enzymes, kinase assay technologies, cell culture techniques, and genome editing and CRISPR/Cas-9.

  • Compare and contrast the roles that fluorescent microscopy, high content screening, and in vivo imaging play in the drug discovery process and biotechnology.

  • Analyze and interpret scientific data and quality control measures as they relate to biotechnology and drug discovery, facilitating critical thinking.
