Testimonials
1 / 6
Deepakshi was a pleasure to work with. She works independently and can search the literature, design experiments, and follow protocols. She has the potential to become an outstanding scientist.
Dr. Jack Bui, Director, UC San Diego
Despite initially having no prior experience in these specific assays, Deepakshi quickly acquired the necessary skills to conduct experiments independently. Her efforts were instrumental in developing automation scripts that streamlined our data analysis pipeline.
Rafael Renteria, Principal Neuroscientist, Creyon Bio
After being given a question regarding assay optimization, she independently conceptualized, planned, executed, analyzed, and interpreted experiments. The experiments she planned were robust and well controlled.
Tim Nicholson-Shaw, Sr. Scientist and RNA Biologist
Deepakshi is diligent, creative and an excellent communicator. She learned Python skills to analyze experimental data and is passionate as a scientist.
Swagatam Mukhopadhyay, Chief Scientific Officer, Creyon Bio
She is an excellent communicator with great attention to detail. Her leadership skills and can-do attitude make her a valuable addition to any team.
Chinmayi Kashyap, UC San Diego collaborator
Deepakshi channelized her passion, leadership qualities, and management skills toward building a strong scientific community of biotechnology enthusiasts.
