Research

I am building new technologies for basic and applied biology. Long-term research interests include:

• fully synthetic (i.e. non-immunogenic) gene therapy vectors that integrate genes into a precise location on the genome
• cheaper, faster, and more accurate gene synthesis
• library vs. library screens which quantify the strength of protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions
