Research Focus
I study how the immune system’s genetic variation shapes human health and disease. My current work focuses on understanding the role of immune genes in complex traits.
My interest includes the unique biology of sex chromosomes, the genetic mechanisms that drive immune response, and their contribution to autoimmunity and infection.
Combining population genetics, computational approaches, and functional genomics, I aim to uncover actionable insights relevant to both basic biology and medical innovation.
