RESEARCH INTERESTs
My research program focuses on developing protein- and peptide-based fluorescent lipid sensors for high-resolution live-cell imaging to understand
molecular mechanisms of cellular lipid transport pathways. In addition to developing imaging tools for lipids, I am interested in developing peptide-based modulators/inhibitors of lipid trafficking systems, both in bacteria and metazoa.
