# updates

**2023-08** -- Finally, 
the main focus of my PhD is published in [*Nature Biomedical Engineering*](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41551-023-01081-7):
The reveal of our repeat-aware approach to RNA liquid biopsy.

**2023-08** -- I'm now staring my K00-funded postdoctoral appointment at *Stanford University* 
with **Howard Y. Chang**!!

**2022-08** -- I just wrapped up teaching the 2022 UCSC Genomics Institute Summer Short Course in Bioinformatics, check out the course material and website [here](https://rreggiar.github.io/ucsc_scbc_2022/).  
  - I managed another instance of this class in the summer of 2023, 
  the link is updated with info from that session

**2022-07** -- Our work on mutant KRAS-driven epigenomic changes in early tumorigenesis is out now [published  in *Cell Reports*!](https://www.cell.com/cell-reports/fulltext/S2211-1247(22)00906-8)
