SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS
The main reason that I study biology is that I enjoy trying to piece together the puzzle of regulatory networks. My main research interests include genetics and some subfields in cellular biology, such as cell cycle and cell signaling. My favorite context for studying these networks is cancer. However, I am eager to learn about fields like neuroscience, stem cells, and immunology. I am also trying to find a balance between wet lab and dry lab in my research. My goal in graduate studies is to expand my skill set, experience different fields during my Master’s, and have a plan for my research career by the end of my PhD.
