🎉 Congrats to the recipients of the 2026 Dean's #Award for Exceptional Achievement in Graduate Studies! Each year, we recognize outstanding grad students whose research, leadership, and dedication have distinguished them during their graduate training. 👉 medschool.vanderbilt.edu/bas…
I had a fantastic time at the Association for Clinical and Translational Sciences Meeting this week. I had the honor of representing Vanderbilt in the 3 Minute Thesis Competition and to present my dissertation work.
I am honored to have received the 2026 Dean’s Award for Exceptional Achievement. I am grateful to my incredible mentors, Drs. Todd Edwards and Jacklyn Hellwege for nominating me for this award and for all of the opportunities they have provided me with.
What an incredible @GeneticsSociety meeting!! I am honored to have had the opportunity to share our science and be a semifinalist for the Trainee Research Excellence award! Thank you to my incredible mentors for your continued support and guidance!

Had a great time at #SRI2025 full of great presentations and new connections. Grateful for the opportunity to share my work with others and honored to receive one of the poster awards!
I am excited to share our new preprint “Genomics-Informed Drug Repurposing Strategy Identifies Novel Therapeutic Targets for Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease.” medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. 1/n
Overall, we used a multi-modal approach which demonstrated that contextualizing genetic signals through causal inference methods and protein folding experiments can elucidate potential drug repurposing targets and novel therapeutic discoveries for MASLD. 6/n
Many thanks to our wonderful co-authors, , many of whom are members of the MVP Cardiometabolic Working Group. 7/n @VujkovicM @toddledwards @JackieHellwege @jeewoo_kim4 @AlexisAkerele
Excited to share our work on drug repurposing for MALSD at the @KeystoneSymp meeting! I am also so honored and grateful to have received a scholarship award!
