A LIFE IN PURSUIT OF UNDERSTANDING
EVOLUTIONGENOMICSBIOINFORMATICSMEDICINE
I explore biological systems through evolutionary genomics, computational biology, and single-cell transcriptomics. My research spans molecular evolution, comparative genomics, and gene expression in disease, guided by an ambition to connect scientific discovery with medicine.
From the branching of life
to the patterns within.
I. IN THE LABORATORY
Investigating evolutionary relationships, gene-family dynamics, and molecular evolution across Tetrahymena species.
Investigating hepatobiliary cell populations and gene expression in cholestatic liver diseases using single-cell and single-nucleus sequencing.
Examining synonymous codon preferences and evolutionary pressures across approximately 250 Escherichia coli genomes.
