Department: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

Research interests: I work with G-quadruplexes (non-canonical DNA structures). They are important structures in our cells but how they get processed during DNA replication is unknown. I utilize biochemical and single-molecule techniques to understand how they get resolved. If not resolved, they can lead to replication stress and genomic instability (hallmark of cancer).
