Agreement Value:

$30,000.00

Agreement Date:

Feb 1, 2023 - Aug 31, 2023

Description:

We would like to hire this candidate as she has extensive expertise in tissue culture and will allow our company to more efficiently complete protocols to be able to produce a greater number of products via in vitro propagation. The knowledge she brings from her graduate work and subsequent industry experience will inform her ability to adapt existing protocols to similar plants that we have had less than ideal results with thus far. In turn, we will provide the opportunity for application of her skills and further development of new, transferrable skills within a broader variety of products and increased volume of production - adding valuable industry experience to her credentials.
