I work at Kobe University. I learned about OpenWetWare from Web, and I've joined because CAGEN.
Education
- 2007, PhD, California Institute of Technology
- 2001, BA, New College of Florida
Research interests
- Promoters. DNA sequences necessary for transcriptional initiation. Typically the first 10% of a gene.
- Reporters. Ways of measuring gene expression in vivo or en masse.
- Recombination. Genome egineering.
- Metabolism. Make stuff for humans. Clean up messes.
