In the MORL, I am a member of the Clinical Genetic Team. During my undergrad and grad school, I was very interested in the evolution of fish and their genomes, particularly large-scale changes to the genome, such as deletions, duplications, etc. That being said, I am excited to say that I am one of the individuals in the lab that performs Multiplex Ligation-Dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA), which detects genetic deletions, duplications, and rearrangements.
