Biography

Research Interests: Regulation of chromatin states and transcription, epigenetic regulation of sex-specific differences during aging.

We study mechanisms by which genes are coordinately regulated, how these processes are affected by sex, and change during aging. Specifically, we are interested in how epigenetic chromatin changes between males and females drive sex-specific differences.
