My current research projects aim to help us better understand how the mobile and non-coding genomes are impacted by changing environments. I have a keen interest in evolutionary and developmental biology. I have used chick, mouse, zebrafish and frog model organisms as well as cellular systems to answer my research questions. I am using genomics and transcriptomics approaches along with CRISPR-Cas9 to reveal functions of sRNAs and mobile genetic elements in reproductive fitness.
