      I study evolutionary genomics, and my work can help people have a better understanding of how new gene functions emerge : )

      I hope it would have far researching effects around the world for all kids. All countries have genetic diseases. Fewer countries have the means of diagnosing those diseases. My work is helping lay a foundation for countries to better diagnosing sick kids and hopefully come up with specific treatments for those kids.

      I hope to find ways to treat people with Melanoma- the deadliest type of skin cancer. If we can find this we can stop people from dying of this type of cancer .
