Our other major result was the discovery of substantial influence of the mother's genotype on embryonic gene expression. While it has long been appreciated that maternal diet and activities can affect the development of a growing embryo, our results demonstrate that the mother's genetic makeup can also have similar widespread effects on embryonic development... I am currently a Director of Therapeutic Data Science at Caris Life Sciences. Previously, I worked at Celsius Therapeutics as the lead computational biologist in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). I co-led an interdisciplinary team responsible for identifying new targets using our large-scale in-house patient single-cell sequencing datasets. Our team discovered multiple new disease drivers and targets which became the basis of the IBD drug pipeline.
