In Dr. Matthew Meyerson's genomics-focused laboratory, I worked with postdoctoral fellow Dr. Alison Taylor in researching the effects of chromosome arm copy alterations in various cancer types using CRISPR Cas9 system technology. During my time in the lab, we utilized artificial telomere DNA and Cas9 to direct double-strand break induced homologous.

At the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, I worked for five weeks in Dr. Alan D'Andrea's laboratory. Dr. D'Andrea is a world leader in research of Fanconi Anemia, a rare hereditary disease that predisposes patients to severe skin carcinoma. I assisted a graduate student in his study of the FANCD2 gene, a key component in the Fanconi pathway and the source.
