I am a biomedical researcher at the University of California, Irvine, studying how environmental exposures influence metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and disease risk across generations. My research focuses on environmental obesogens, germline inheritance, chromatin organization, and the molecular mechanisms linking early-life exposures to obesity and metabolic dysfunction. By integrating animal models, molecular biology, and genomic approaches, I aim to identify how environmental factors leave lasting biological effects and to translate these findings into a better understanding of human health and disease.
