Cancer genomics

Master's course, University of Galway, School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, 2021

Teaching assistant in the cancer genomics module (MA5107) at the University of Galway. This course is part of the curriculum for the biomedical genomics master’s program at the Universty of Galway. I was tasked with overseeing, administrating, and designing the practicals. This included helping students with subjects like: high-performance computing, R, Python, variant calling, signature detection, and much more.

General biology

Undergraduate course, Washington State Universty, School of Biological Sciences, 2018

At Washington State University I helped teach general biology as part of my teaching assistantship. The majority of work consisted of giving a mini-lecture on the relevant weekly laboratory subject and then overseeing the students work through the laboratory material. I was required to lead two laboratory sections and assist with one every week. This TA work helped me develop the skills necessary to teach complex biological concepts (e.g. DNA replication, osmosis, evolution) to people who were first year students and not biology majors.
