Daniel Brody, BA

I am a Bay Area native with broad interests in and out of the lab. I try to spend weekends cooking, climbing, and collecting. Before graduate school I worked in the Oldham lab here at UCSF studying intratumoral heterogeneity. In the Oldham lab I helped optimize and automate the production of multi-omic data sets from serial sections, at both the bulk and single cell level. As an undergraduate I studied psychology and neuroscience at Whittier College, focusing on neurodegenerative disease. While in college and upon graduation, I worked in biotech on a variety of projects ranging from rare cell detection to the development of formulations and devices to improve tissue preservation and hybridization based assays.
I am currently interested in engineering bacteriophage to modify bacteria in vivo, with an eye towards future therapeutic applications.
