The Day to Day

The lab space is San Diego BioMed’s epicenter of traffic and life. No one day at the bench is the same.

Hear some words about daily work at San Diego BioMed from our Research Technicians pictured, Kaylin Au and Francisco Almanza –

Kaylin: “My time at SDBRI has allowed me to engage in hands-on, detail-oriented work that contributes to meaningful outcomes. I enjoy the day-to-day work of solving problems, analyzing data, and being part of a process that advances scientific understanding or supports important applications. The structured environment, combined with the opportunity to continually learn and apply new techniques, keeps me motivated and curious every day. What makes it even more rewarding is being surrounded by knowledgeable, supportive colleagues—I’m constantly learning with and from them, which fosters both personal and professional growth in a collaborative environment.”

Francisco: “A day at San Diego BioMed for me involves a blend of wet lab work and data analysis. I focus on flow cytometry experiments, staining human PBMCs and analyzing the resulting flow data. I also work on preparing libraries for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) so I try and balance the workload accordingly.”
