With two decades of experience in molecular plant biology, I specialize in the development of transgenic and gene-editing technologies.
At Inari Agriculture, Inc., I apply these tools to solve critical agricultural challenges. A key part of my work is ensuring the safety and accuracy of genome engineering.
To support the scientific community, I maintain CRISPR-PLANT v2, a specialized platform for evaluating CRISPR specificity in plants. I am passionate about bridging the gap between theoretical research and practical application.
An online resource for designing highly specific guide RNA spacers based on improved off-target analysis. Provides specific on-target guides for precise genome editing.
