I am a Biomedical Engineer, working in Medical Oncology. I am dedicated to research, teaching and mentoring which when combined effectively, can be mutually beneficial.Â
My research interests include drug delivery, biological transport, genetic engineering and cancer diagnostics and therapy. I have worked on several projects with applications to cancer diagnostics and therapy including a global health project for the spectroscopic detection of oral cancer and a clinical breast cancer study utilizing spectroscopy to aid surgeons in detection of tumor margins. My PhD dissertation focused on projects to uncover the mechanisms of electrotransfection with the use of genome editing technology, as well as methods to improve its efficiency. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I worked to decipher the biological basis of cancer and to develop new therapeutic approaches, specifically with the use of systematic approaches to discover and study the underlying mechanisms cancer-specific genetic vulnerabilities.
