Personal profile

Research

My research focuses on understanding how transposable elements and their epigenetic regulators influence gene expression and therefore contribute to brain aging and the development of related neurodegenerative disorders.

Utilizing human post-mortem brain tissues and direct reprogramming methods, I combine advanced long-read sequencing techniques, such as Oxford Nanopore, with bioinformatics pipelines tailored specifically to study transposons.
