Understanding the effects of genetic variants on neuroinflammation signatures induced by herpesviruses and other pathogens

We are interested in understanding gene x environment effects with pathogens such as herpesviruses, by using human stem cell derived systems such as cerebral organoids.

Novel genomics and stem cell-based technology development and optimization

We are working on technology development and optimization to improve human cellular model systems, as well as genomic technologies, for understanding common, complex neurological diseases.

Development of multiplexing and demultiplexing to enable high-throughput experimentation

An active area of our research is to develop approaches (multiplexing/pooling and demultiplexing/deconvolution) to enable high-throughput, parallelization of experiments and data.
