What is your current research focus?

I am researching a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that acts as a scaffold for membrane-less structures produced within cells. Specifically, I discovered a new lncRNA induced by starvation stress and am focusing on studying it.

When do you find your research most exciting?

It's incredibly exciting when I uncover something that no one else in the world has discovered before, giving it a name with my own hands. Additionally, unexpected results during experiments and the anticipation of determining the next steps are moments that fill me with excitement.

Any standout memories from FBS events?

The FBS Annual Get-Together stands out. Since I spend most of my time in my own lab, it was fascinating to talk with students from other labs and learn about their research and student life.
