I am a member of the Smolke Lab at Caltech. My research is directed toward developing in vivo biosensors with the ability to detect fluctuations in metabolite and protein concentrations as well as post-translational modifications.

Research Interests
My background is in the study of protein structure-function relationships. Through this work I have become interested in the changes in protein modifications and metabolite flux that occur during the cell cycle. I am particularly interested in the way post-translational modifications and small molecules influence epigenetic control of transcription.
