Biography

Research Interests

Cardiac development is precisely regulated by the interplay of several transcription factors within a network. How these transcription factors mechanistically interact and how perturbation of the transcription factor network results in congenital heart disease requires further elucidation. Through the use of advanced microscopy, single cell sequencing technologies, proteomics, and functional assays, we identify key players and pathways of the transcription factor network regulating cardiac development and how various insults can disrupt these elements leading to congenital heart disease. Results from this work will not only further our understanding of cardiac development, but will also identify therapeutic candidates.
