  • Demonstrated expertise in hematopoietic cell culture and differentiation across multiple lineages.
  • Strong proficiency in flow cytometry, including panel design, execution, and data interpretation.

  • Hands‑on experience with stem‑cell–derived hematopoietic models.
  • Ability to independently design, troubleshoot, and execute complex experimental workflows.
