Atiqur Rahman, Ph.D. Candidate, Pharmacology, University Of Houston
I am a self-motivated Scientist and Ph.D. candidate in Pharmacology, bringing over 11 years of combined research and practical experience. My expertise spans diverse areas, including cardiovascular pharmacology, cell and molecular biology, and clinical research, with a strong focus on Translational Sciences. I excel in both in vitro and in vivo platforms, with proficiency in mammalian cell culture, CRISPR gene editing, and multi-parameter flow cytometry, as well as advanced pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics analysis using Phoenix WinNonlin.
Throughout my career, I have honed technical skills in molecular biology techniques like PCR, qPCR, ddPCR, and next-generation sequencing. I am well-versed in protein quantification methods such as ELISA and Western blotting, alongside a strong foundation in immunohistochemistry and microscopy, including confocal and fluorescent microscopy. My hands-on experience extends to animal handling, rodent dosing, and in-vivo imaging, further enhancing my expertise in translational pharmacology. Also. I have become proficient in key scientific tools, including Phoenix WinNonlin, GraphPad Prism, Image pro-plus, and ImageJ, alongside my mastery of Microsoft Office. My problem-solving abilities, leadership skills, and strong communication have allowed me to thrive in collaborative environments while maintaining a proactive, entrepreneurial approach to independent projects.
Driven by curiosity and a passion for discovery, I am committed to advancing pharmacological research with a focus on translating scientific breakthroughs into meaningful healthcare solutions. My versatility in fast-paced settings ensures successful outcomes, whether working independently or within a team.
