Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics analysis of non-small cell lung cancer
Abstract
Lung cancer is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Tumour ecosystems feature diverse immune cell types. Myeloid cells, in particular, are prevalent and have a well-est...

Astrocytes and the development of the central circadian pacemaker circuit [FINISHED]
The master pacemaker located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) coordinates “wake” functions by inducing the circadian release of glucocorticoids (GCs). Unlike other neuroendocrine systems, it is still unclear whether GCs feedback on the adult SC...

Circadian control of prenatal glucocorticoid programming effects [FINISHED]
We have made substantial contribution to understand the role of circadian clocks during pregnancy. Still, little is known about the physiological function of the maternal and embryonic clock and how maternal and embryonic clocks talk to each other...

Role of astrocytes of the master circadian pacemaker in the integration of time cues (StarTime)
This project seeks to redefine how the mammalian circadian system operates. The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), the brain’s master clock, coordinates daily physiology by receiving light input and synchronizing time signals throughout the body. Trad...

Invasion Ecology and Management
In conjunction with advancing management objectives, I investigate physiological and environmental influences of phenotypic expression of invasive snakes and lizards at different timescales. The goal of the research is to discern physiological inf...

Stress Ecology and Stress Endocrinology
Through combined opportunistic sampling of individuals experiencing naturally occurring stressors and experimental manipulation (e.g., temperature, hormone treatment, pathogen exposure), I work to explain how environmental change manifests as phys...

Thermal Biology and Ecoimmunology
Ectothermic vertebrates are ideal organisms to investigate thermal constraints on physiological processes, as their body temperature can be manipulated by changing environmental temperatures. My projects have investigated thermoregulation in lizar...
