He/Him
I am interested in understanding how DNA viruses affect chromatin and subvert host immune responses. I earned my Ph.D. in immunology from the University of Washington in 2023. When I am not in the lab I enjoy skateboarding, traveling, going to concerts, baking and cooking.
He/Him
I am studying the role of Adenovirus protein VII and its impact on chromatin reorganization during infection. I am also interested in discovering more about the role of post translational modifications on protein VII and their impact on function and localization. When I am not in the lab I am either out hiking, biking, playing sports, or listening to music.
She/Her
I am interested in how host and pathogen factors interact during infection. I am currently studying the role of host histone-modifications during herpes simplex virus-1 nuclear egress. When I am not in lab, I am usually knitting, gardening, or cooking.
He/Him
I am an undergraduate senior at the University of Washington majoring in biochemistry. I plan on incorporating prior knowledge of genetics and biochemistry to study the impact of Adenovirus protein VII on host chromatin. By learning how to excel in a research lab setting, I aim to use my experience when applying to medical school in the future. Outside the lab, I like exercising at the gym, cooking for my family, or attending musical festivals.
She/Her
I am currently a SURP Intern andn undergraduate student at the University of Washington, where I intend on majoring in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. I am excited to dive deeper into the field of virology and learn about how hosts undergo changes during infection from pathogens. Outside of lab, I like to bake, go to musicals, and explore Seattle with my friends.
