Biography

As a research coordinator at the Attachment and Neurodevelopment Lab, I work primarily with autism and child development research, with a particular focus on epigenetics. My research interests lie in understanding how environmental and biological factors, including gene expression changes, influence developmental outcomes in children. Our research provides insight into the complex interactions between genetics, early life experiences, and developmental disorders such as autism!
