Who am I?
I am a postdoctoral fellow, department of biological sciences at the State University of New York at Buffalo. I received my Ph.D. degree in Bioinformatics from Seoul National University in 2019 under the supervision of Prof. Sun Kim. My research focus is to identify putative enhancers relavent to human FOXG1 syndrome and their interactions using machine learning methods and algorithms.
