🌟 Employee Spotlight: Melissa Hinman, Ph.D. 🌟 Meet Dr. Melissa Hinman, a key member of our scientific team at InVivo Biosystems. Melissa designs and builds transgenic zebrafish models that power groundbreaking research and preclinical development. 🧬 With a Ph.D. in Genetics and Genome Sciences from Case Western Reserve University, Melissa’s deep expertise is the foundation for her innovative work today. Melissa’s journey in genetics began at Whitworth University, where she earned degrees in biology and Spanish. After her Ph.D., she completed her postdoctoral research at the Institute of Molecular Biology at the University of Oregon—the birthplace of zebrafish research. Her extensive academic background in genetics has given Melissa a unique blend of technical expertise and creative problem-solving skills, which she applies every day at InVivo Biosystems. She is one of our most versatile team members, with end-to-end involvement in projects including transgenic design (knock outs, knock ins, Tol2), zebrafish phenotyping, and more. She is also a tender of plants, contributes sweet goods to the community kitchen on site at IVB and has recently taken up rock climbing. Melissa recently received a well-deserved shout-out from one of our clients who happens to be at her alma mater. Her recent project for Whitworth University involved developing a technically challenging transgenic zebrafish line for a client’s research in protein function. At InVivo Biosystems, we’re proud to have talented scientists like Melissa leading the charge in advancing research through the development of custom genetic models. Her passion for science and drive for innovation are what make her—and our whole team—so exceptional! 🌟 Link to Whitworth University’s post highlighting Melissa: https://bit.ly/489qmqZ #EmployeeSpotlight #Genetics #ZebrafishResearch #InVivoBiosystems #ScientificInnovation #GenomicScience #WomenInSTEM #PhD #GoTeam
