My research is at the intersection of genomics and computing, with a core emphasis on variant and copy number analysis, gene expression, microbiome, and proteomics studies. My current endeavors revolve around identifying genomic signatures and protein targets for drug discovery in movement disorders, particularly Dystonia and Parkinson’s Disease. My involvement extends to other significant initiatives, including disease modeling using Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) for Lesch-Nyhan disease and DYT1 dystonia within the Hess-Jinnah Research Group.
