Research Interest
My original training was focussing on genetics and development. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I shifted towards functional genomics and microarray analysis of the Insulin signaling pathway in the β-cell. This expanded my “horizons” and allowed me to put my computer skills to good use. Since then, I shifted back towards a more development-related center of interest.
