About me
I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Cellular Biophysics Lab of Prof. Margaret Gardel at the Institute for Biophysical Dynamics at the University of Chicago.
My work is funded in part by an American Heart Association Midwest Affiliate postdoctoral fellowship.
Primary research interests:
(i) Coordination of morphogenetic movements and cancer metastasis by cell-microenvironment forces
(ii) Molecular mechanisms of the transmission and regulation of forces at cell-cell junctions
(iii) Micropatterned models of adhesive and biomechanical interactions of cells with their microenvironment
