I am currently a computational biologist in the
Sampson Lab at Boston Children's Hospital. Previously, I completed post-doctoral research at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School Channing Division of Network Medicine working on genetics and functional genomics of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). My current research involves genome-wide association studies, statistical genetics and fine-mapping, transcriptomics, and chromatin accessibility assays. During my Ph.D. in the lab of John Iacomini at Tufts University Sackler School of Biomedical Sciences I worked on
in vivo and cell-based models of calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity, using transcriptomics and sequencing methods to detect
in vivo miRNA:mRNA targeting. In prior work as a research technician I have largely worked on molecular and cell biology projects related to immune function, ER stress, gene therapy, and high throughput chemical biology screens.
