As an assistant researcher in the Ecker Lab, I helped develop a single cell protein-DNA interaction platform to map the transcriptional program of neuron cells during differentiation.

With Dr. Cowling in the Greenberg Lab, I showed that upregulation of the protein UGGT1 is correlated with irregular collagen biosynthesis in cardiac myofibroblasts, which could contribute to cardiac fibrosis. Some of the most common procedures I performed were Western blotting, synthesizing expression vectors, and transformation and transfection.My project.
