Research Interest:

The research in our lab mainly focuses on genetic and cellular mechanism involved in embryonic development in mice. By using a forward genetic screen, we try to identify genes that are critical during embryonic development. Specifically, I am interested in identifying mutants that contribute to incomplete neural tube closure, "green intestine" (which is a defect in enteric nervous system) phenotypes.

General Interests:
I love spending my time outdoors, camping, hiking, traveling, snowboarding…movies, music, food are also my favorites.
