I'm an assistant professor at the University of Toronto (same university where I obtained my PhD). My lab studies how mutations affect our genomes and how this affects evolution. I was previously a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Michael Desai at Harvard University, where I developed several synthetic biology tools to interrogate cells and observe evolution at extremely high resolution.
