My lab studies both lab mice and naked mole rats. There is a belief amongst some that what we discover in mice will be universally true, and what we discover in naked mole rats will be a weird mole rat quirk. I believe this mouse-centric view of biological systems is very limiting.

My goal is to understand the regulatory role of every nucleotide in the genome, and how this changes across every cell in the human body.

If you are interested in doing a Ph.D. with me at UMass Chan Medical (Genomics and Comp Bio Department), see the links below. Deadline is Dec 1st.
