Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests lie at the intersection of genetics and epigenetics, with a current focus on cancer and drug development. I am particularly interested in bifunctional small molecules, such as Transcriptional/Epigenetic Chemical Inducers of Proximity (TCIPs). My work now concentrates on designing, synthesizing, and testing new TCIPs that utilize various transcription factors or histone modifiers to target genes implicated in different types of cancer. Through this approach, I aim to develop innovative therapies that can more precisely and effectively combat cancer, especially to ease the treatment process for vulnerable patients, such as children and adolescents.
