Basic / Advanced Biology using exciting, easy to understand graphical methodsI have a passion for science, especially life science. After having finished my master's degree in Biotechnology and working as a molecular oncology researcher for 3 years, I now wish to share my passion for this field with budding, curious minds.
In this class, based on the requirement of the student, I will focus on basic or advanced life science topics such as molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry and bioanalytical techniques. If you are in school and need your basics covered, I can teach basic biology and chemistry in the simplest manner. I can understand these subjects can come off as quite dry to many students, but hopefully, my extreme enthusiasm in this field will change that for you. Hope to see you soon.

Biochemistry for Undergraduates and Curious AdultsDo you ever wonder why you're not supposed to eat grapefruits whilst taking certain medicines? Are you an undergraduate struggling with a particular topic in your degree (or is there something you're dying to know more about)? Do you have any vaccine-hesitant relatives? Or perhaps you always thought cells were cool but never knew where to start? If so, this might be for you.
Like all my classes, this is student-led: you tell me what particular area you want to learn about, and I'll teach it to you. If you just want to know more about how we function and don't know where to start, don't worry! I'll take you through basic undergraduate topics like Biological Chemistry and Cell Biology, and as your knowledge of the fundamentals grows we'll move on to more advanced topics such as Metabolism, Genomics, Biotechnology, Microbiology and Immunology, and you can direct your own learning journey.
I have a first-class Biochemistry degree from Imperial College with particular strengths/academic interests in Antimicrobial Resistance, Immunology, Biotechnology and Plant Science.

Bioprocessing/Biochemical Engineering/Pharmaceutical Biotechnology (Design, Operation and Scaling of Bioreactors and Unit Operations)In bioprocessing you cannot have the cake and eat it too. Constantly, you need to make choices about which unit operation is best suited for a particular application and what are the trade offs.
Because of so many factors that guide this decision, it can be daunting for starting biotech/bioprocess students to be overwhelmed. I was definitely overwhelmed in my 1st year of uni. But after 5 years studying the subject, I am here to help you to think like an engineer and make informed choices based on the context of the process and product.
In my class, I will teach you the theoretical background behind bioreactors and common unit operations (e.g. filtration, centrifugation, chromatography) and how to implement them into a bioprocess. This class is best suited for university students (bachelor or master), people joining/switching industry or just people interested in how pharmaceuticals are made! If you are a university student, we can can discuss your own assignments or projects.
My tutoring style is discussion-based. We will have a conversation about the subjects rather than a lecture, which will give you the tools and confidence to better synthesize the course content and present your ideas in a specific manner. I create my own materials for each class, including definitions, calculations, diagrams and past-exam questions. I use a touchscreen tablet to interactively annotate our class worksheets, draw P&IDs, structures and mechanisms, write down chemical reactions and step-by-step calculations.
For any questions, please feel free to contact me!

Learn Fundamentals of Cell Biology, Biotechnology and GeneticsI am a graduate in pharmaceutical sciences (gold-medalist) and I teach the following subjects: Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Cell Biology, Genetics, Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmacology, Analytical Chemistry.
Highly interactive and friendly sessions to ensure complete comprehension of concepts and revision of basic fundamentals. A progress monitor is recorded and updated to better the understanding ability and progress of the learner.
Being a post-graduate student myself, I am aware of the teaching environment and methodology a student expects. I believe being comfortable in asking questions until a concept is crystal clear, is of utmost importance at any level of learning.

Central Dogma of Molecular Biology: Fundamentals, Key ProcessesIn this course we will explore the central dogma of molecular biology, the fundamental principle that explains how genetic information flows from DNA to proteins, through the processes of transcription and translation. Through dynamic lectures, we will analyze the structure and function of nucleic acids, the mechanisms of gene expression, and the regulation of these processes in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Molecular Pathways to Life:The Chemistry and Biology of Living SystemsLife is a complex phenomenon and its emergence has been my major curiosity since childhood. I thought I could understand the concepts of the emergence of life by studying molecular biology. Therefore, I did my bachelor's studies in molecular biology and genetics at Yildiz Technical University. My bachelor's education has provided me with a comprehensive understanding and specific skills related to molecular biology. I am pursuing a Master’s degree in Chemistry & Life Sciences at Chimie Paris - Tech/Université PSL to understand the chemistry behind the transition of non–living matter to living matter and improve my perspective on the chemistry of life. I am confident that I can bring some fresh perspectives to complex problems of these topics with my background and skills and can teach fundamentals of these fields.

Biology for biotechnological applications in various fieldsBiotechnology is a broad field that applies biological systems, living organisms, or parts of organisms to develop or create products and services. It's essentially the use of technology to solve problems and make useful products based on biology.
Examples of Biotechnology Applications:
Genetic engineering: Modifying the genetic makeup of organisms to create new traits or improve existing ones.
Bioinformatics: Using computer technology to analyze biological data, such as DNA sequences.
Synthetic biology: Designing and constructing biological systems that don't exist in nature.
Biopharmaceuticals: Producing therapeutic proteins and other drugs from biological sources
Would you like to know more about a specific area of biotechnology, or perhaps we will discuss a particular application in this session.
