Furnari Laboratory

UC San Diego, Ludwig Cancer Research, San Diego, CA 2013 – August 2019 Ph.D, Biomedical Sciences (Laboratory of Dr. Frank Furnari) • Implemented ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq and data mining to uncover enhancer mediated regulation of EGFR. • Performed cell-based in vitro reporter assays to validate enhancer function.• Monitored EGFR mRNA and protein expression via qPCR and immunoblotting after CRISPR/Cas9-mediated perturbation in established cell lines and induced pluripotent stem… Show more UC San Diego, Ludwig Cancer Research, San Diego, CA 2013 – August 2019 Ph.D, Biomedical Sciences (Laboratory of Dr. Frank Furnari) • Implemented ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq and data mining to uncover enhancer mediated regulation of EGFR. • Performed cell-based in vitro reporter assays to validate enhancer function.• Monitored EGFR mRNA and protein expression via qPCR and immunoblotting after CRISPR/Cas9-mediated perturbation in established cell lines and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC’s). • Identified and validated critical EGFR enhancer-associated transcription factors through HOMER motif analysis of ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq data.• Pioneered the first CRISPR/Cas9, ChIP-seq, and ATAC-seq experiments in our lab. Modified and implemented previously published analysis pipelines for these techniques. • Advised and assisted several students, including undergraduate researchers and junior graduate students.• Recognized as an outstanding instructor by the Biological Sciences Division of UC San Diego.• Applied for and secured funding from a government funded training program. • Participated in multiple professional development workshops including an Introduction to Biotech Mini-course and a Micro-MBA sponsored by the UC San Diego Rady School of Management.• Fostered collaborations with multiple institutes both local and out of state. • Contributed to findings published in several peer-reviewed journals.
