I’m a life sciences researcher and data analyst with an MS in Biotechnology (GPA 4.0, Florida Institute of Technology, 2026) and a BS in Biology with a minor in Animal Behavior (Indiana University, Magna Cum Laude). I build statistical workflows, analyze complex biological datasets, and write clearly for scientific audiences. During my graduate research at Florida Tech, I replaced a $1,000+/year paid data collection platform with a custom open-source R solution, designed automated field data workflows, and integrated multi-source environmental data into reproducible pipelines. As an undergraduate researcher at Indiana University, I analyzed multi-year GPS wildlife tracking datasets, cleaned long-term behavioral observation records, and built the lab’s first searchable specimen database from 40+ years of archival records. WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU - Statistical analysis: regression, mixed-effects models, hypothesis testing, descriptive statistics - R and Python scripting and pipeline development - Data cleaning and transformation from messy, multi-source datasets - Publication-quality visualizations with ggplot2 and matplotlib - Reproducible reporting via R Markdown and Jupyter Notebooks - Scientific writing: Methods, Results, and Discussion sections - Literature reviews, grant background sections, and lay summaries - Manuscript editing for clarity, accuracy, and journal style My background spans field ecology, molecular biology, and computational data science. I work equally well with observational biological data, commercial analytics datasets, and structured clinical data. I’m detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and used to communicating complex findings to non-specialist audiences (I’ve taught college biology). Whether you need a quick data clean-up or a full analysis pipeline with a written report, I can help. Message me with what you’re working on. I reply within 24 hours.

I am a former biomedical researcher with a knack for writing and an eye for detail. My skill sets include writing scientific articles, technical content and web copy; editing manuscripts, technical writing and grant proposals; and designing and troubleshooting experiments. I find projects that allow me to make complex, technical subject matter accessible and compelling to any individual particularly rewarding, and my broad skill set and experience make me an ideal candidate for projects in small businesses, research labs and startups. My professional experience began as an award-winning biology instructor at the college and university levels, teaching entry- through graduate-level courses for over three years. Over the next decade, I performed highly technical heart research, where I discovered a new form of dilated cardiomyopathy and developed and implemented a gene therapy treatment in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. I now work exclusively as a science consultant and freelance writer.

I am a Data Scientist with over 20 years of experience performing cutting edge analyses at top tier institutions. I've worked primarily as a Bioinformatics Specialist, but have used my skillset to clean, QC, integrate, analyze and/or present data across a variety of fields. While I am new to Upwork, I have written or contributed to over 25 peer reviewed publications, many in high impact journals. Let me help you make the most of your datasets and assist in producing robust results.

Hi! Thanks for taking a look at my profile. My name is Jessie and I am a writer who specializes in scientific topics, with Microbiology, General Biology/Health, and Public Health being my favorite topics to write about. I've been here on Upwork for almost ten years (!!!) now and am coming back from a hiatus because I am now paying for my wedding! Let's collaborate -- you need something written, and I need to pay for this wedding, so let's chat! One important thing about me is that I am 100% COMPLETELY AI FREE! None of my authoring or edits come from the usage of generative AI. Every word I write is conjured behind these big glasses and typed manually. I believe generative AI has done disastrous and irreversible repercussions onto the freelance writing world, with people paying for AI slop when they expect quality work. I have a BS. in Cell, Molecular, and Infectious Disease Biology (obtained in 2017) from Washington College, where I was a noted research fellow. I currently have been working as a microbiologist since 2019, and I currently work as a Quality Research Microbiologist in a global chemical research company. For my own privacy, I will not be posting the location. I hope you understand! Here on Upwork, I've done so many different projects. I've acted as a Lab Manager, an IRB member, and (the most common) a scientific author. I think my favorite is writing! Here's what I offer and my rates: Copywriting: $0.06 USD per word. This means a 1000-word piece would cost $60 USD. Copyediting: $0.04 USD per word. This means a 1000-word piece with a full editing package would cost $40 USD. For complex research projects, please expect a fee for research efforts. I am flexible with project pricing, so let's chat! This is all subject to change and can be raised or lowered depending on the project. My turnaround time works with your deadline. I'm able to sometimes spit an article out in 7 hours (or way less depending on the project). Let's chat!

Immunologist & Bioinformatician | Wet-Lab Trained, Computationally Fluent Your experimental data shouldn't be sitting in a folder waiting for someone who understands both the biology and the code. That's what I do. I'm an Immunologist and Data Scientist (M.S. in Computer Science, PhD Candidate in Immunology) with 6+ years at the intersection of wet-lab science and high-dimensional data analysis. I've run the assays, prepped the libraries, and built the pipelines to analyze them - so when I work with your data, I'm interpreting it with real biological context, not just processing files. I help biotech startups, R&D teams, and academic PIs turn complex biological datasets into clear, publishable, statistically sound results. What I do: • Single-cell RNA-seq analysis end-to-end: QC, clustering, differential expression, annotation, and publication-ready figures (Seurat, Scanpy, DESeq2, edgeR). • Machine learning and predictive modeling: Applied to biological data for classification, biomarker discovery, and pattern recognition (scikit-learn, PyTorch). • Therapeutic target discovery: ML-driven identification and prioritization of novel drug targets from multi-omics data. • Agent-based modeling of immune systems: Simulating cell-level dynamics to study infection, inflammation, and immune response in silico. • Custom pipeline development: Reproducible, version-controlled, documented workflows in Python, R, and Bash, built specifically for your experimental setup. • Flow cytometry and microscopy analysis: Gating strategies, high-parameter panels, and quantitative image analysis (FlowJo, Fiji/ImageJ, CellProfiler). • Experimental design and publication support: Grant writing, methods sections, figure preparation, and statistical consulting. My Scientific Domain: I specialize in immunology, with deep expertise in mucosal immunology, host-pathogen interactions, and immune profiling. This ensures your data is analyzed through the lens of actual disease mechanics. My work has directly contributed to successful projects published in Science Advances and Nature Communications Engineering. If you have a project that needs both biological depth and computational rigor, send me a message. I offer a free introductory call to discuss your data and map out a plan.

I am a wet-lab trained Computational Biologist with expertise in: - Developing complex custom analysis pipelines for RNA-seq data - Processing and analyzing data from large-scale public databases e.g ENCODE - Subject matter expertise in Stem Cell Biology, Epigenetics, Aging, and RNA biology
