I am currently a technical support representative for Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc. My primary focus is building relationships with researchers who are coordinating Immunoglobulin-based and/or RNAi experiments.
Experienced scientists in molecular/cell biology research eventually become so skillful at bench techniques and protocols, that the nuances of these procedures become second nature, and often times these nuances are what determine the overall quality and consistency of experimental results.
There are emerging ways for bench scientists to optimize their protocols so that results are more meaningful toward the ultimate goal of publishing quality data. Time and labor at the bench is very important to consider when running experiments. I am contributing research antibody (immunoglobulin) and siRNA/shRNA related protocols in order to facilitate and provide flow to the research experience.
