I just started my lab at Michigan State University in January 2018! My lab studies translational regulation of gene expression in Arabidopsis and tomato. Translation is the final step of the central dogma and can alter protein production more directly than transcription. Currently we use ribosome profiling to monitor genome-wide translation in response to environmental changes. By studying translational regulation, we aim to develop new strategies to promote plant adaption to the changing environment and ultimately improve crop performance.
