Irvine Tatenda Mutiti

I am an ambitious and self-motivated biochemist with a passion for cancer genomics and translational research. I conducted extensive biochemical research during my undergraduate studies. I spent more than a year investigating the anti-inflammatory effects of the leaf extracts of Callistemon viminalis in the Biomolecular Interactions Analysis (BIA) laboratory at the University of Zimbabwe. I recently completed my MSc Applied Biosciences studies at Anglia Ruskin University. I have expert-level experience in essential laboratory skills, including mammalian cell culture, bacterial transformation, protein expression, purification, and analysis. I have extensively worked with the NHS's confidential Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) data in Genomics England to research circadian gene variants' effects on colorectal cancer patient's survival. I also have expertise in programming languages R and Python, writing academic text for publication, and I am an editor of the book 'Introduction to R' by Douglas et al. (2024). I have assumed leadership and team-building roles throughout my academic and professional career. In the laboratory, I hold myself to high standards of cleanliness, honest reporting of findings, and careful methodical labelling of all reagents.
