Biocurator
Carnegie Institution for Science
Sunnyvale, California
I received my Ph.D. from U. Maryland under Dr. Zhongchi Liu, where I studied how gene expression and hormones shape the parts of the flower, developed a model of the role of auxin in fruit development, developed pipelines for genomic analysis in strawberry, and identified the mutation behind yellow strawberries’ color. After defending, I worked for two years as a postdoc at the USDA-ARS Plant Germplasm Introduction and Testing Research Unit in Prosser, WA under Dr. Long-Xi Yu, developing pipelines for genomic selection for abiotic stress tolerance in alfalfa. I joined Rhee lab in August of 2018 as Biocurator of the Plant Metabolic Network. I am currently working to curate the PMN databases, and to improve the accuracy, capabilities, and automation of our prediction pipelines. Building tools and resources that people use to do cool science is a passion of mine. Outside of work, I enjoy sewing, programming, and biking.
