• Female reproductive development occurs in the ovarian follicle, which contains a germ cell, the oocyte, surrounded by granulosa and theca cells. Signaling between the oocyte and granulosa cells is necessary to develop.
• Managed the cloud storage of imaging data, deployed a MongoDB database, generated interactive data visualizations, and performed statistical analyses to screen for potential contraceptive targets from a drug library of.
• Integrated and analyzed Methyl-, ChIP-, and RNA-sequencing data that identified novel regulatory mechanisms in the non-coding region of ribosomal DNA during early embryogenesis.
• Identified 386 differentially regulated genes using microarray data extracted from chicken ovaries that may contribute to the reduced fertility observed in excess feeding practices.
• Applied a linear-model based approach to RNA-sequencing data sets from female germ cells of four species which identified 481 genes whose expression were conserved and 2,226 whose expression diverged by speciation in.

• The proper conservation and natural regeneration of native tree species in urban forests includes careful consideration of potential losses to large herbivores and soil contamination by regional anthropogenic sources.
• Employed advanced elastic net regularization, bootstrapping, and cross-validation methods to identify the soil elements that contribute to the abundance of seven native tree species in urban forests.
• Aided in experimental and sampling design to best assess survival and growth of xeric species to promote urban natural forest regeneration.
• Estimated a 20% increase of sapling populations and 34% expansion of native trees after white-tail deer exclusion from an urban forest through generalized linear mixed model analyses.

• Our goal at the Data Learning Center is to support faculty, staff, post-doctoral scholars, and students on all phases of the data life cycle to produce reproducible and transparent research, gain insights from data.
• Advised clients of diverse backgrounds on study design and statistical methods using software including MATLAB, Minitab, JMP, R, SAS, and SPSS.
• Designed, moderated, and led workshops on data reproducibility and statistical analysis in R for over 100 faculty, staff, and graduate students.
• Created guides for commonly requested statistical analyses in R, Minitab, and JMP and published a GitHub Pages website to host guides.
