Research Interests & Projects

Experienced bioinformatician with over 10 years of experience in RNA-seq projects dealing with varying degrees of bulk RNA-seq to scRNA-seq across several species and platforms, largely in the field of neuroscience. Experienced wet lab molecular biologist, with a particular focus on end-to-end analysis pipelines for scRNA-seq. Developing the DISCO single-cell platform (Digital microfluidic Isolation of Single Cell -Omics) equipped with customized library preparations, sequencing strategies, and downstream bioinformatic pipelines. Leading commercialization efforts of the DISCO technology.
