I am currently working as a 80% dry-lab, 20% wet-lab research assistant in the single-cell spatial neuromics lab led by Dr. Jinyue Liu. The lab uses single-cell RNA-seq (scRNAseq) in tandem with multiplexed error-robust fluorescence in situ hybridization (MERFISH) in studying human psychiatric diseases like Parkinson’s disease and autism. The lab employs a human disease model called cerebral brain organoids which are stem-cell-derived “mini-brains” that are similar to 10-week-old human fetus brains.
