• Research Interests

  + –
  We focus on the molecular mechanisms of DNA repair including DNA inter-strand crosslink repair, double-strand break repair, mismatch repair, and translesion synthesis. We hope that our work will provide mechanistic insights into cancer and aging that are associated with irregulated DNA repair.
