Sex Differences in Drosophila Somatic Gene Expression: Variation and Regulation by doublesex.
Published in G3, 2016
In this study, we focus on the mechanisms used by doublesex (dsx) to generate sexual dimorphism in gene expression, and address the relationship between dsx regulation and consistent sex-differential gene expression across strains. These results provide insights into a more complete pool of potential DSX targets, as well as revealing the molecular flexibility of DSX regulation.

Neurons That Underlie Drosophila melanogaster Reproductive Behaviors: Detection of a Large Male-Bias in Gene Expression in fruitless-Expressing Neurons.
Published in G3, 2016
Male and female reproductive behaviors in Drosophila melanogaster are vastly different, but neurons that express sex-specifically spliced fruitless transcripts (fru P1) underlie these behaviors in both sexes. How this set of neurons can generate such different behaviors between the two sexes is an un- resolved question. These results suggest a possible global mechanism for how distinct behaviors can arise from a shared set of neurons.

Disease-specific biases in alternative splicing and tissue-specific dysregulation revealed by multitissue profiling of lymphocyte gene expression in type 1 diabetes.
Published in Genome Res., 2017
This paper is about the substantial, and previously underrecognized, role for alternative splicing in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders and particularly for Type I Diabetes. Our findings highlight a substantial, and previously underrecognized, role for alternative splicing in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders and particularly for Type I Diabetes.
