I am a Research Associate in Mark Terasaki’s lab. My primary project involves using serial section SEM to study cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in articular cartilage and between articular cartilage and subchondral bone. I also assist with other projects in the lab as needed and with general lab responsibilities.

I am interested in the 3D ultrastructure of neurons and glia. Now I am studying the ultra-structure of the axon initial segment and oligodendrocyte progenitor cell.
