Preceptor
Project June
1998 to December 1998
The Preceptor project is a fully funded venture between the National Education Department and the University of Illinois at Chicago. The project was to reproduce a computer model of a patient with defined disease state(s) and use the multi-media tools to enable pharmacy students to learn more about pharmacotherapy by applying what was learned in class. As a research associate in this project, I worked with pharmacists renowned in the fields of anticoagulation and transplant surgery to organize algorithms for the pharmacotherapy and monitoring parameters into a multi-media aided model.
Independent
Research Project April
1998 to April 1999
Formulated various popular
over-the-counter products as well as specialty prescription items (e.g. Gaviscon tablets and liquid, Vaseline lotion, and bacitracin
ointment) into pharmaceutically elegant alternatives
Pennsylvania
State University, Laboratory Research Assistant Fall Semester 1995
Volunteered at a laboratory and learned
aseptic techniques used in effective design of a line of monoclonal antibodies
using hybridoma technology as an interest outside the immunology course. The laboratory had contracts with
biotechnology companies to use these monoclonal antibodies for possible
production of either drugs or diagnostic tests.
