POST-DOCTORAL RESEARCH SCIENTIST AND BIOINFORMATICIAN
My research focus in on the use of multimodal next generation sequencing technologies (e.g. RNAseq, ATACseq, Proteomics) to understand the complexities involved in T cell function and regulation during viral infection and in cancer settings. Currently, I am looking into:
- The function and regulation of cytotoxic CD4+ T cells, and epigenetics mechanisms that may regulate T cells function.
- Using TCR repertoire sequencing and machine learning algorithms to understand TCR clonality and specificity.
As both a wet lab scientist and a bioinformatician, I can efficiently link the biology with the bioinformatic analysis to gain a deeper understanding into T cell function and heterogeneity
