• Conduct RNA-seq analysis to identify genes affected by Cactin in border cells - a cancer metastasis model, from reads alignments to alternative splicing analysis, resulting in a publication in JCB.• Develop pipelines for computational connectomics analysis, adopted as lab norms, leading to the discovery of novel neural circuits for grooming movements. • Improve CNN machine learning models to achieve 80% accuracy in large-scale animal video behavioral analysis across 3 light conditions.• Lead projects on descending control in grooming resulting in a first author publication and $500,000 funding from NSF Career Award (2019-2024), as well as on motor selection for leg rubbings with another first author publication in preparation and contribution to an NIH35 grant under review.• Lead a project on motor selection for different leg rubbings, with another first author publication in preparation and contribute to NIH R35 grant under review. • Lead an undergraduate team of 15+ students to reconstruct sensorimotor circuits of leg rubbing in Electron Microscopy data set, resulting in their team poster presentation at Society for Neuroscience’s meeting in 2022. • Published 3 research articles, including one as first author and two as second author, with another first-author manuscript in preparation.
