I am Rajarajan from INDIA. Basically I am a Veterinary graduate and recently completed Ph.D in Animal Physiology at Indian Veterinary Research Institute. I am looking forward to pursue my Post Doctoral Fellow now.
I have 3 years of hands on experience in Somatic cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT), In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), Transgenic and knock-Out mice, Embryo genomics and cell culture as a Scientist at Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) (http://www.ccmb.res.in), Hyderabad, India.
For my PhD degree, I did Real time PCR quantitative ex-pression of few metabolically important genes in buffalo oocytes and IVF embryos and immunoflorescence study of their protein localization. I have much experience in RNA & DNA isolation, RT-PCR, Realtime PCR, Gene cloning & Sequencing, Immunoflorescence study, Cell culture techniques and other molecular biology techniques. I have good handling and surgical skill in Lab as well as in domestic animals.
During my post graduation I had the opportunity to work in the discipline of Reproductive Physiology involving In vitro Culture of Preantral Follicles from Goat Ovaries.
I had the experience of working as Research Fellow in an Animal Biotechnology Project entitled "Cloning of Rabbit and Goat “ and "Cryopreservation of Rabbit and Goat Embryos". I have undergone short term training courses on "Micromanipulation techniques" at Madras Veterinary College and "Ovum Pick Up" Technique at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, India. My research Articles have been published in Small Ruminant Research and Animal Reproduction Science and some are about to be published.
