Overview

Patrick’s graduate research was focused on the origin and function of sRNA mainly in the yellow fever mosquito. In addition to mosquito samples, Patrick also has experience in analyzing data from bacteria, yeast, ferret, mice, and human samples. He received his Ph.D. in Genetics, Genomics, and Bioinformatics from the University of California, Riverside in 2017 before coming to St. Jude as a Bioinformatics Research Scientist. Patrick has led the execution of projects that mine and analyze big data from internal and external datasets. His particular research areas of interest include Transcriptomics, Immunology, and Single-Cell Omics.
