Biography
My work focuses on investigating how sex differences in gene expression contribute to the onset and progression of neurodegenerative disease. I use single-nucleus RNA-seq datasets from both Drosophila and mouse models of tauopathy, to build and refine customized pipelines to identify sex-specific transcriptional changes across time and genotype.
