Research Interests: genomics, biostatistics, rare diseases, and the human microbiome.
Current Projects: I am currently exploring the potential associations of the esophageal microbiome with the host immune response presented in patients with Scleroderma (SSc). This is part of an investigative effort to elucidate the potential environmentally-driven etiology of SSc. As a 2016-2017 Burroughs Wellcome Scholar, I was given the opportunity to explore the possibility of a hybrid PhD, one that includes laboratory science and data science training.
System of Study:
