Research summary

This researcher studies how chemical modifications of RNA, particularly N6-methyladenosine (a common RNA tag that affects gene expression), influence viral infections such as HIV-1, as well as related molecular mechanisms in cancer and liver disease caused by hepatitis C virus. Work also touches on host proteins like SAMHD1 that restrict viral replication and immune cell proliferation. This is largely molecular virology and RNA biology research aimed at understanding how viruses interact with host cell machinery.

Publication output has been low and irregular over the past decade, with a peak in 2018 followed by sparse, inconsistent yearly counts and no output in some recent years.
