This research provides the first-ever map of the honeybee gut protein interactome to understand how the parasite Nosema disrupts bee health. By isolating gut protein interactions and identifying them via mass spectrometry and computational analysis, the project uncovers how infection alters essential networks, paving the way for targeted, safer treatments for honeybee disease.

My research uses spatial RNA sequencing to map where genes are expressed within tissues affected by chronic inflammatory diseases. By capturing genetic information with precise spatial coordinates, it creates an atlas of disease-driving genes. This deeper understanding may reveal new biomarkers and therapeutic targets, enabling future treatments beyond symptom management.
