Nothing expands your mind like travelling does...
I love travelling to new places, whether alone or with family or friends! From the San Francisco Bay Area in the west to Malaysia in the east, each journey has left me with lasting memories. Here are a few snapshots from the places I’ve lived, worked, and traveled.
YASMIN SHAMSUDIN
I am a researcher, entrepreneur, traveler, blogger, and mother of three.
This is my website, containing a blog about my experiences during my postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford and as a researcher at Uppsala University. I also write about places I’ve traveled to, near and far.
Additionally, this website contains links to my biotech startup, consulting company, and my former academic research lab.

Can we engineer a protein that can be used in clinical diagnostics?

Can we predict how amino acid substitutions will affect catalysis?
TEM beta-lactamase & antibiotics
Can we design novel antibiotics that are not affected by resistance?
Insulin-regulated aminopeptidases (IRAP)
Can we create efficient drugs for treating Alzheimers?
NSAIDs and Cyclooxygenases (COX) 1 &2
Can we rationally design more potent painkillers with fewer side-effects?

Do you need someone to proofread or edit your scientific manuscript?
Did you know about my company?
I enjoy writing. Having kept a diary since I was very young, and growing up in the first Internet age, I liked the idea of keeping an online diary. And so blogging started. But my writing experience has also been very useful in my research career as I continue my professional development.
I started helping scientists and students with their manuscripts and theses after having helped many co-workers and friends with theirs. This was how my company YS Consulting started. If you want to know what I can do for you, visit my consulting website!
Scientific Writing Coach
I once attended a course in scientific writing and was surprised by all the things I didn´t know that I didn´t know about how to write a scientific manuscript.
To help other scientists, I started offering workshops where I go through the different sections of the manuscript and, more importantly, the required content and sub-sections of each section. Want to know more? Contact me through the Scientific Writing Coach website!
