“I love studying epigenetics and its wide ranging applications from cancer biology to cell differentiation. In graduate school, I hope to explore the mechanisms and impacts of epigenetic regulation in normal development and disease conditions. I also have an interest in neuroscience and am interested in potentially conducting research on chromatin states epigenetic regulatory events within the brain.”
