About Rafael Mejia
I am a laboratory research technician specializing in neurotoxicology at DePaul University, where I investigate the effects of ubiquitous environmental contaminants on neuronal cells. My expertise highlight a variety of micro and molecular biological techniques, including qPCR, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. I also have experience in animal husbandry and data analysis, such as regression modeling of highlighted datasets.With a strong background as an emergency medical technician and combat medic, I bring unique interdisciplinary knowledge to the lab. My clinical experience includes managing shock models, respiratory maintenance, and life-threatening illnesses which gives me an interdisciplinary understanding of biomedical challenges and their applications in research.
