Molecular Diagnostics Fellow
Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center
Lauren is currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Clinical Genomics and Advanced Technologies Laboratory in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. She is active in review and interpretation of sequence variants for clinical reporting, overseeing and drafting the report for select clinical assays, and evaluation/validation of new clinical assays. Her research responsibilities include designing experiments, writing IRB proposals, obtaining clinical samples and obtaining data for studies in hematology, metagenomics, and somatic whole exome sequencing.
Before coming to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Lauren obtained her PhD in Molecular and Cell Biology from University of Connecticut in 2022. During her PhD Lauren applied nascent RNA sequencing methods to examine enhancer function in diseases such as Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma.
