Systems Biology, Post-Transcriptional Gene Regulation
My primary interest is understanding the regulatory logic underlying post-transcriptional gene expression networks using a combination of biochemical and computational approaches. I completed my doctoral research at Duke in the UPGG in the lab of Jack Keene studying RNA-binding proteins.
