Postdoctoral Scholar
UCSF
University of California, San Francisco
I am a postdoctoral scholar in Ralph Marcucio's Laboratory at the University of California, San Francisco. I study the mechanisms that drive morphogenesis of the frontonasal process of the chicken embryo. My PhD work was in the field of skeletal fragility and bone quality, and I am utilizing some of the methods from my past work to explore the role of biomechanics in shape change of the chick midface. I also really enjoy imaging and image analysis!
