Discover transport anomalies of insulin in pancreatic cells and interrogate their consequence towards a characteristic Type 2 Diabetes defect– impaired glucose stimulated insulin secretion. End-to-end research methodology for thesis work: (1) design CRISPR gene-edits for GFP fusion to insulin (2) develop and build imaging technology (3) write algorithms.

Synthesis of Organometallic Complexes for Polymer Catalysis- Synthesis of Palladium Phosphorus-Oxygen bidentate complexes- Applied catalysts towards polymerizing of high density polyethylene (HDPE) plastics

Synthesized recyclable catalysts to up-convert carbon dioxide and glycerol (an excess byproduct in biofuel production) to desirable cosmetic feed stocks. Utilized green chemistry metrics to design catalytic synthesis pathways for industrial chemicals. Pathways maximized atom economy with use of minimally toxic reagents and used recyclable catalysts.
