 Research Interest

I believe that my experiences make me both the ideal researcher and global leader for performing advanced highthroughput technological studies. Until now, I generally explored almost every possible academic endeavor, including Biological Sciences, Food Sciences, Natural Sciences, and Applied Sciences.
