Projects

My project involves implementing a pipeline developed in the Nobrega lab to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms that modulate enhancer activity and lead to obesity risk through changing expression of genes important for maintaining adipose tissue homeostasis. This project was conceived by Dr. Nobrega and I - as my overarching research interests lie in using molecular biology to understand how genetic polymorphisms contribute to disease risk.
