Genetics Graduate Student

Biography

I'm a 2nd Year Graduate Student in Genetics (Fall 2011). I have two major professors: Dr. Ian Korf and Dr. Frederic Chedin. My current project is on CpG Island Promoter, Mammalian Genomics, Epigenetics & Gene Expression, Bioinformatics, and Computational Biology. You can read more in my student profile.

Research Interests

Mammalian Genomics, Epigenetics & Gene Expression, Bioinformatics, Computational Biology

Previous Projects:

1. GGG Rotation 1 Korf Lab: An automated method to quantify milk fat globules and sources of RNA in milk

2. Junior Specialist Chedin Lab: Characterizing the human DNA methyltransferase 3-like (DNMT3L) protein and its interaction with histones and the de novo DNA methlytransferases DNMT3A and DNMT3B

3. Undergrad Research Assistant Jasieniuk Lab: Identifying the genetic basis of invasiveness of native and introduced blackberry
