I work in the Lauffenburger lab at MIT studying how ECM proteins affect the migration and adhesion responses of human breast cancer cells.  I learned about [[OpenWetWare]] from class, and I've joined because of the 20.109 wiki.

During the summer of 2012 and Feb-June 2013, I was a full-time Organism Engineering intern at Ginkgo Bioworks.

From Jan-Dec 2012, I worked Dr. Chris Voigt's lab at MIT with Felix Moser, where I was working on improving the dynamic range of sensors in genetic circuits through the use of plasmid copy number.

From Sept 2010- Dec 2011, I worked in the Lauffenburger lab at MIT with Dr. Shannon Alford designing an ELISA assay for Mena, a protein upregulated in invasive breast cancer cells.

I have also worked on developing a drug-eluting contact lens with Dr. Joe Ciolino in the Langer lab at MIT during January-August 2010.
