Chris Vollmers's Lab•Generated the first long read sequencing data set of 12 mouse livers over a circadian time course providing novel understanding into isoform regulation•Obtained accurate and comprehensive results in long-read isoform data•Translated data to publicly understandable figures, effectively communicating complex data to a broader audience•Created a workflow that converts illumina libraries into long read libraries enabling faster data acquisition with optimal precision•Supervised and mentored a team of undergraduate students

•Built a single-cell RNA-seq mouse aging atlas to characterize aging patterns in a mouse model•Optimization of a high-throughput RNA-seq pipeline enhancing efficiency and accuracy•Conducted single-cell RNA-seq analysis using Python (Pandas, NumPy, Scanpy) and R (Seurat) to identify and classify cell types

• Independently carried out experiments involving transgenic mouse models•Performed PCR, and Gel Electrophoresis to determine the genotype of the mouse• Maintained 20+ mouse cages, 1-2 hours per day separating mice to prevent overcrowding• Attended weekly lab meetings, prepped and presented many scientific articlesSenior Thesis: Elucidating the Relationship Between the AR and Wnt pathways in Prostate Basal Cells during Homeostasis.
