| RESEARCH INTERESTS | |
| My current research focus is understanding the factors that influence and regulate the variation of protein levels within individual cells and over populations and what role this variation plays in fitness. My work uses S. Cervisiae as a model system and a combination of flow cytometry and microscopy to obtain single cell data and population estimates of protein distribution and variation under various chemical and genetic perturbations. | |
