Biography

Currently, I am working on various studies of the Corona virus in terms of finding mutations and searching for a vaccine for mutations that occur in the virus. I use various bioinformatics techniques according to the mutagenic chains of the virus.

Area of Interest:

Microbiology
Gel Electrophoresis
DNA and Plasmid Extraction
Genetic Engineering
Molecular Biotechnology
