As I wrap up my PhD, I’m exploring postdoctoral and industry research opportunities at the intersection of regulatory genomics and machine learning.
If you’ll be at #ASHG2025, I’d love to connect and chat!

I'd love to be added! I work on computational methods for 3D regulatory genomics.

Our study shows how combining chromatin profiling, CRISPR-based functional assays, and large-scale biobank data can advance our understanding of genetic risk in atrial fibrillation.

We applied a polygenic risk score (PRS) for AF to carriers of rare LMNA variants in UK Biobank and All of Us. Those with a high PRS had 2x higher risk of early-onset AF. This shows the value of combining rare and common variants in risk prediction. #Genomics #PRS
