Ph.D. Minor, Computer ScienceCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsMy interdisciplinary research examines digital media through the lens of critical race, gender, and sexuality studies. I am primarily interested in investigating how we can leverage the power of media to reinvent and promote social equality. Specifically, my research focuses on digital games and their prosocial influence on 21st- century China.

BioI study the coupling between the global carbon and water cycles under climate change. Specifically, I investigate how plants regulate carbon uptake and water loss as atmospheric CO2 rises and water limitation intensifies, and how these responses feed back on the global environment. I develop hybrid physics–machine learning approaches and combine them with the expanding record of satellite and in situ observations to test hypotheses about ecosystem function.

BioAnni obtained her Ph.D. in Dr. James Johnson and Dr. Janel Kopp's labs at the University of British Columbia. Her Ph.D. work showed that hyperinsulinemia contributes to pancreatic cancer development. Her work also showed that insulin directly acted via the insulin receptors in pancreatic acinar cells to increase digestive enzyme production, thereby generating an inflammatory condition that accelerates neoplastic transformation. She is now working at Diehn lab to investigate the mechanisms of KEAP1 mutation-induced immunotherapy resistance in lung cancer.
