My lab is interested in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of epigenetic regulation in human cells. In particular, My lab is studying the mechanisms that are responsible for setting up genomic cytosine DNA methylation patterns during normal development. How these mechanisms go awry in disease conditions such as imprinting disorders, auto-immune disorders and cancer is also of direct relevance to our work.

My lab is located in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology within the College of Biological Sciences at UC Davis, one of the ten campuses of the University of California. Our two closest UC neighbors are UC Berkeley and UC San Francisco. Stanford University is located about two hours away (see map of the area).
My lab is affiliated with the following Institutions, Departments, and Graduate Programs.
