WORK HISTORY
Postdoctoral Fellow @Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Nashville, TN, US
NIH T32 Molecular and Genetic Epidemiology of Cancer (MAGEC) Fellow, Division of EpidemiologyBurroughs Wellcome Fund PDEPI lead a large-scale study in hereditary breast cancer, integrating clinical biospecimen processing with advanced statistical modeling to generate clinically actionable insights. My work leverages whole exome and whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and survival modeling in R to interrogate outcomes and tumor biology. I collaborate closely with clinicians, biologists, and bioinformaticians to ensure our findings translate meaningfully to patient care and risk assessment.
