My research interests include using RNAi experiments to knock down genes known to regulate circadian rhythms in Drosophila melanogaster.
Our long term goal is identification of genes driven by the circadian clock and how they influence behavior. My current project involves the Groucho gene in Drosophila melanogaster.
More specifically,
1. Identification of genes that contribute to regulating Groucho
2. Identification of circadian output genes Groucho has a role in regulating.
