Niti Vanee, Graduate Student at Virginia Commonwealth University

Niti Vanee




I am a trained Systems Biologist and Bioinformatician with the highly desirable skills of high-throughput data scientist specializing in transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics. My research project involves exploring the metabolic capability of prokaryotes for the application in health (published work), therapeutics (published work), pharmaceutical ingredients, and biofuel production (in process). I aim towards using my training, experience and skills towards the application that can be directly related to common people's benefit.
