Ph.D. Student in Chemical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2012
Other Tech - Graduate, Schwab Learning CenterBioAs a researcher in the Herschlag lab at Stanford, I am working towards the development of a quantitative and predictive model of RNA folding. For this purpose, I use single-molecule fluorescence, small-angle X-ray scattering, and other experimental tools to dissect the structural and dynamic properties of RNA three-dimensional motifs. These 3D motifs are like LEGOS that build diverse and complex functional RNA machines such as the ribosome. The goal is to develop a general model of RNA folding from the understanding of the energetic properties of small recurring building blocks or motifs. Recently, I joined an ongoing collaboration between the Greenleaf and the Herschlag labs that uses next-generation high-throughput sequencing for the characterization of RNA structural motifs. This powerful high-throughput approach developed in the Greenleaf lab allows dissection of the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of thousands of 3D motifs in parallel.
