I completed a Masters of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics (SMBB) at LaTrobe University and am currently reading for a PhD in Biochemistry; based at the LTU Melbourne (Bundoora) campus. I have a professional background as a clinical Physiotherapist.
My research currently focuses on the use of hydrogel scaffolds for seeding stem cells and the production of regenerative tissue, specifically cartilage. I am an Australian-born student (Malaysian-Singaporean Chinese ethnicity).
I am keen to help you with any Science-related subjects at University level, or other subjects (e.g. English, Mathematics) at all high school levels. My specialities include Physiology, Anatomy, Biology, Chemistry and Biotechnology Business. Happy to assist at any level of study from high school, undergraduate to postgraduate.
Success in Science usually requires a combination of good learning/study technique, grasp of complex and interrelated themes and some mathematical abilities.
My goal is to ensure you excel at your studies, develop strong learning foundations for your future studies and provide guidance regarding study and career choices. I can tutor you both in person and/or online.
I have assisted a number of students with their successful transitions between undergraduate courses, and admissions to postgraduate courses.
I previously completed a Bachelor of Physiotherapy at the University of Melbourne and a Master of Business Administration (Public Health Administration) at UNSW. I have been a practicing Physiotherapist for around 10 years (hospitals/private practice/aged care/sports and high performance/workers compensation), have worked as a laboratory assistant in a number of University laboratories and have seen the full spectrum of clinical health, public health and applied science both in Australia and overseas, including some time with the United Nations International Institute of Global Health in South East Asia.
Let me know how I can help!
