Interests
My research interests are focused on virus-cell interactions, specifically cell signaling and gene transcription. However, I would much rather write about science than actually do it. Science writing/editing are my goals post graduation.
My non-science life is food-centric. Restaurants and food blogging are an obsession, cooking merely a hobby. When not eating/cooking/blogging or in lab (which is not a lot of time), I sail in Boston Harbor.

Projects
My thesis work is directed at identifying the stress-induced signaling pathways or factors that lead to HSV-1 promoter activity and potentially, reactivation from latency.
