Broad interest in an array of molecular techniques including experience with FMR1 DNA testing and methylation studies for both clinical diagnosis and prior research projects. Specifically, molecular-phenotype relationships in fragile X-associated disorders including relationships of phenotypes in fragile X syndrome and FXTAS to FMRP; FMR1 and ASFMR mRNA, methylation and activation ratios, and FMR1 repeat length and AGG location, as well as various other biomarkers of cellular function with FMR1 expansions.
