Project Outline: The Role of DEAD-box Helicase DDX53 in Autism
This project explores the developmental expression of DDX53, a gene linked to Autism Spectrum Disorder, using a humanized mouse model. I’ll measure its RNA and protein levels across brain regions and stages to better understand its role in neurodevelopment.
Research Poster : XBP1s activity from RNA-seq samples
Dear Laidlaw Network,
I’m excited to share with you my research internship poster at EPFL’s Laboratory of Computational and Systems Biology. Those two months were a wonderful experience. It was a challenging, completely new experience that made me learn so much about myself and about the field.
