Dr Bina Raju BDS, MSc, PhDI am a dentist by profession with a Masters in Experimental Oral Pathology from the United Kingdom, and a PhD in Oral Biomedicine from Norway.
Engaging in research helped me learn and understand a wide range of techniques used in the laboratory. In addition, it helped me realize my flair for writing manuscripts. I enjoyed the whole process of data collection, literature search, manuscript formulation and organization, and the final preparations associated with the submission of manuscripts to peer-reviewed journals. |
