Collaboration & Scientific Partnerships

Open to academic and institutional collaborations advancing insect functional genomics, RNA-seq analysis, single-cell omics, and multi-omics integration—emphasizing reproducibility, biological interpretation, and translational scientific impact.

Academic & Government Collaborations

Open to collaborative projects with universities, USDA-associated research groups, and public research institutions.

  • Bulk RNA-seq experimental design and analysis
  • Single-cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analysis
  • Genome annotation for non-model insects
  • RNAi target discovery and validation strategy

Industry Research Partnerships

Interested in translational genomics collaborations focused on crop protection, resistance biology, and sustainable agriculture.

Engagements can be structured through appropriate institutional channels to ensure compliance with research policies.

Reproducible Data Analysis & Pipeline Development

  • HPC-ready RNA-seq workflows (HISAT2 / STAR / StringTie)
  • Differential expression & pathway enrichment analysis
  • Single-cell clustering, marker detection & trajectory analysis
  • Custom bioinformatics pipeline development

Training, Seminars & Knowledge Sharing

I also support scientific knowledge dissemination through tutorials, workshops, and educational content focused on bioinformatics and genomics workflows.

Topics include: RNA-seq pipelines, Conda environments, HPC/SLURM workflows, and best practices for reproducible research.

How to Connect

If you would like to discuss a potential scientific collaboration, please email me with a short description of the project goals, organism/system, dataset type (bulk, single-cell, ATAC), and expected timeline.
