My research aims to uncover how chemotherapeutic drugs exert their effects at the molecular level. Using gene editing and the GeCKO system, I investigate the pathways activated by Oxaliplatin, the primary treatment for colorectal cancer. I am particularly interested in how drug–gene interactions shape treatment response, with the goal of identifying new therapeutic targets and improving cancer therapy.

I am investigating the mechanism and functional significance of telomere tethering to the nuclear periphery in budding yeast. Currently, I study the interplay between the LINC complex and Sir complex during meiosis. Yeast is not just used for baking, but to do science as well! :)

My research is focused on the molecular biology of plants, primarily maize and peanut. I study regulation of gene expression by RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), transcription factor binding, and noncoding RNAs. The regulatory landscape of plants is extremely complex, and my goal is to uncover some of these networks of regulatory molecules and genes, particularly those involved in response to abiotic stress.

Turner, Caileen
I am interested in the immune system interactions between bacteria and plants, specifically involving Pattern-Triggered Immunity (PTI) and Effector-Triggered Immunity (ETI). My experience in the lab involves molecular techniques, aseptic principles, DNA isolation, and more. Currently interested in expanding my knowledge in molecular techniques and programming for scientific applications.
