Teaching

Guest Lecturer in Cell Biology

Undergraduate course, The University Worcester, School of Science and the Environment, 2020

Guest Lecturer in the first year undergraduate module “Cell Biology” at the University of Worcester where the subject was “An introduction to bioinformatics” which featured both a lecture and a practical workshop.

Co-module Leader in Bioinformatics and Genomics

Undergraduate course, The University Worcester, School of Science and the Environment, 2017

For the Autumn 2017 semester, Dr. Mike Wheeler and I redesigned the content of the final year undergraduate module “Genomics and Bioinformatics” to feature updated lectures and practical workshops. Through these sessions we were able to provide students both a sound theoretical background and real hands-on experience on the application of bioinformatics in a wide variety of biological feilds. Specific areas I was responsible for included lectures and workshops on phylogenetics, next generation sequence, genome assembly and annotation and transcriptomics.

Module Leader in Human Genetics

Undergraduate course, The University Worcester, School of Science and the Environment, 2017

For spring 2017 I served as the module leader for the second year human genetics course at the University of Worcester. In this module, I covered topics such as the human genome project and its updates, the health-related impacts of various large and small-scale genomic mutations, the medical interpretation of pedigrees,the ethics of genomic testing, genomic ancestry and genetic epideniology.
