Building upon work from my PhD, I am using bioinformatic approaches (ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN, RNA-seq) to investigate the role of the transcription factor GRHL2 in facilitating the transcriptional activity of the estrogen receptor phosphorylated at serine 118 (pS118-ER) in breast cancer cell lines.I am also investigating the effects of an S118A mutation in ER on.

Teaching assistant for Biocore 382: Ecology, Genetics, and Evolution Lab. I guided students in developing unique scientific questions, executing experiments, and communicating results through writing and poster presentations. I collaborated with other TAs and the faculty to develop learning activities for each discussion section.Biocore is a four semester.

Bhattacharyya stem cell research laboratory. Continuing work from undergraduate research.

Bhattacharyya stem cell research laboratory. My senior thesis focused on the role of oxidative stress in Down syndrome induced pluripotent stem cells, neural progenitors, and neurons. I have also done work on the morphology of Fragile X neurons and have taken part in developing an economical protocol to identify loss of the third twenty-first chromosome in.

Summer internship through the University of Wisconsin - Madison's SCORE program (Summer Cambridge and Oxford Research Experience). I was a member of the Brockdorff lab studying the process of X inactivation. My project focused on identifying what proteins associate with the inactivated X chromosome in order for the inactivation process to occur completely.
