About Sachein Sharma
I am a proactive, relatable, and efficient physician-scientist and epidemiologist who combines expertise in evidence-based medicine and multi-omics (e.g. genomics, transcriptomics, and epigenomics) as a Senior Molecular Science Liaison (MSL) at Caris Life Sciences - an AI-driven personalized medicine company that aims to optimize care for patients with cancer.I have developed passions for hypothesis-driven analysis and interprofessional communication through my training, ten years of research, and over four years of experience as a Senior MSL at Caris. I have channeled these passions to translate my understanding of laboratory techniques into informed diagnoses, treatments, and management. As a Senior MSL, I take pride in building and maintaining trust and rapport with internal and external stakeholders to educate them and advocate for their needs and interests. At Caris, I am also able to advance my professional goal of becoming a physician-scientist who educates stakeholders by combining clinical and research perspectives to increase patient quality of life as well as my personal goal of succeeding by perpetually learning, applying, and teaching. In addition, I have been privileged to share my appreciation for precision medicine and to inspire others to seek a deeper understanding as an adjunct faculty at Abilene Christian University for the online Master of Science in Precision Medicine program.About Caris Life Sciences: https://youtu.be/VBrBFFtJqPk?si=5jb1I2yVfEuL6m9tTissue Lab Drone Tour: https://youtu.be/PIaWAR28NQc?si=GKv9DEhTjiSSJu7HBlood Lab Drone Tour: https://youtu.be/r5qWc6VgkeI?si=crWxcir1UxFZox-Q
