My husband, Paul, Dodger, and I. <br> # Hi, I'm David 🥽💊 I have five years of experience as an early-career medical professional across both laboratory medicine and pharmacy. I am actively advancing my role as a Medical Laboratory Technician (ASCP) and Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT) to further distinguish myself in these high-impact fields. As I continue practicing medicine, a big part of me desires to explore the unseeable, but observed phenomena as it concerns life and the world we live in. # The Art of Data As a research hobbyist and open-science advocate, I spend time writing and exploring the active problem of making sense of researcher data through ==scientific visualization== that plays nicely with the eyes. <iframe src="https://3dproteinimaging.com/protein-imager/?projectId=cpwvYg6VmtptHkCoLWSm&isUserProject=1&gui=transparent" width="100%" height="400"></iframe> Computers of today can draw the shapes of proteins, or the large biomolecules inside everything alive, and [it has a rich history.](https://youtu.be/bHyi7bIzlfo?si=uCw92-d3rJDbvgN1) My go-to tool for this is the web-based app [Protein Imager](https://3dproteinimaging.com/) developed by Gianluca Tomasello, Ilaria Armenia, and Gianluca Molla, with their paper covering the online viewer [published in the journal Bioinformatics.](https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btaa009) I'd personally like to thank Gianluca Tomasello in a special effort to help co-create and share with me [iframe support.](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Elements/iframe) It's how you can see and pan the molecule around above. # I'm Writing a Review Paper I plan to address my current knowledge gaps by writing the single-author paper, [Protein Science—A Review](Protein%20Science—A%20Review.md), synthesizing the foundational basics of protein science. This focused self-study is designed to solidify my expertise and provide a robust academic foundation for my future graduate studies after passing the ASCP BOC as a Technologist in Molecular Biology, or MB(ASCP). # Become a CPhT, Free Some of the best ways to win in life are, and should be, free of charge. In an effort to back this philosophy, I've also created a guideline on [what to study for to obtain an Ohio CPhT license](PTCE.md) in 2025. --- **@lemasterdj** [ORCID](https://orcid.org/0009-0000-3548-3303) [GitHub](https://github.com/lemasterdj) [Zotero](https://www.zotero.org/lemasterdj) [LinkedIn](https://linkedin.com/in/lemasterdj) [Instagram](https://instagram.com/lemasterdj) Email me, at **[email protected]** Call and text, **(614) 694-2565** **Open Science 🌈 [That's CC-BY 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0)**
