I am focusing on skeletal muscle epigenetics research at the Romero Lab. Where we focus on understanding the genetic and biochemical mechanisms that get activated in physically active individuals and how diet and environmental factors influence the expression of enhancers.
Investigating HIF gene expression and its relation to circadian rhythm regulation within zebrafish models.
I contribute to research investigating the effects of psychedelics on neuroplasticity, with a focus on 5-HT2AR-expressing neurons to study the neural mechanisms underlying behavioral and synaptic changes.
Synthesis of main group metalloporphyrins for use as a tunable Lewis acid catalyst, done in an effort to aid in the sustainability of chemical synthesis when used in place of precious metals used in catalysis today.

How does layering soil health practices lead to successful implementation of No-till in organic systems?
I work in the Moreno Lab studying how ocean biology and chemistry interactions influence marine ecosystems. We investigate how marine plankton respond to environmental changes such as temperature shifts, nutrient availability, and pollution. Our observations help us understand how these factors may affect harmful algal blooms, ocean oxygen levels, and carbon cycling
Creating a molecular network to help in identifying metabolites associated with cancer
I am researching how people's perception changes based on alpha waves through EEG and eye-tracking, and am investigating how perceptual processing has an impact on emotion recognition skills.
I am interested in pathogenesis and host-pathogen interactions.
Investigating and aiming to better understand how MAPK activity regulates chromatin accessibility in ESCs (embryonic stem cells).
I am studying the evolution of venom in lionfish.
I'm researching ways to enhance heavily doped bismuth ferrite for more effective water splitting, aiming to develop a cleaner and efficient method for hydrogen production using sunlight.
Investigating regulators of cell growth.
In the Lam Lab, I have been working with Katherine Mateos (Ocean Sciences) to research the bioavailability of marine particulate iron on Antarctic phytoplankton. My work so far has largely involved maintaining and transferring phytoplankton cultures and measuring chlorophyll fluorescence in a fluorometer to determine their growth rates. Katherine and I will perform iron-addition experiments to these cultures to investigate why natural marine particles stimulate a greater physiological response than synthetic Fe additions.
My research focuses on creating immiscible Ruthenium Copper alloy nanoparticles with good electrochemical activity for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER).
Developing and implementing tests for the HDLAgent, focusing on creating unit tests for the new API interface and setting up a framework for regression tests.
