Postdoc at Oregon Health & Science University in the O'Roak lab. Bioengineer and biologist studying human genes at scale 🧬💚
It's been an amazing journey at UO and the Plesa lab! Looking forward to my next steps as a PhD scientist.
Amazing PhD defense by Dr. Natanya Villegas! She pioneered CRISPR-Cas9 and RNA work in our lab and drove multiple tech-dev projects. She is looking for opportunities in the PNW so reach out -> @trienetoscience.bsky.social
