Biography

My research interest focuses on understanding how environmental exposures, including pesticide exposure and stress, influence neurodevelopmental processes that contribute to neuropsychiatric and intellectual developmental disabilities. To address these questions, I employ a multidisciplinary approach combining behavioral assays, molecular analyses, next-generation sequencing, and bioinformatics.
