Research: 
Next Generation DNA Sequencing strategies for rare Mendelian disease gene identification and functional genomic technologies in general. I also collaborate on a number of research projects at UNMC involving many different areas of biomedical interest including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and virology.

Genomics Core Facility: The UNMC Genomics Core facility is a comprehensively equipped facility that serves the regional research community. A wide variety of RNA/DNA samples are processed in the core for a number of different applications including RNA sequencing (traditional and single cell), exome, genomic resequencing, metagenomics, methylation, and ChIP sequencing. The core operates the Illumina NovaSeq6000, NextSeq550, and MiSeq systems. (Illumina, San Diego, CA). In addition to NGS systems, the core houses a Nanostring EnCounter, ideal for rapid targeted gene expression experiments for pathway profiling and validation of NGS experiments. Single cell RNAseq experiments are performed using 10xGenomics technology.
