Biography
Mountain View, CA
BS, Human Biology, University of California Santa Cruz, 2015
Lab affiliation (Department): Dr. Andrew Kowalczyk (Dermatology)
Research project: My research investigates how adherens junctions position endoplasmic reticulum (ER) at cell-cell contacts and how ER localization influences junction formation and dynamics. To study these processes, I use live-cell confocal microscopy combined with quantitative image analysis in cultured cells.
