Education

Research interests

I have been fascinated by nucleic acids since I learned about the physical basis of genetic inheritance. As a chemist, I view these biopolymers as functional and adaptable macromolecules with limitless potential. Therefore, my past, current, and future research aims to study the unique capabilities of synthetic nucleic acids and use them to solve challenges in health, medicine, and the environment.
