沃尔特·惠特曼在他的诗歌中唱道：“我很大，我包容众多。”大多数健康的生物体都是由多种细胞和细胞类型组成，但这些细胞没有一个单独发挥作用。同样，处于稳态的细胞包含许多细胞器，但这些细胞器都不能独立工作。这些不同的细胞以及这些不同的细胞器如何在时间和空间上相互交流是引起我兴趣的科学问题。与此同时，就像这些合作的细胞和细胞器一样，我的研究通过与不同的人（来自我鼓励的导师、充满活力的学员和鼓舞人心的同事）的互动而不断重塑和转变。这些个人合作激励并推进了我的研究，以了解促进代谢健康和有机体寿命的细胞通信。
In his poetry, Walt Whitman sings, “I am large, I contain multitudes.” Most healthy organisms are made up of a multitude of cells and cell types, but none of these cells acts alone. Likewise a cell in homeostasis contains many organelles, but none of these organelles work on their own. How these diverse cells and how these different organelles communicate with each other in time and space are scientific questions that intrigue me. At the same time, like these cooperating cells and organelles, my research is constantly reshaped and transformed by interacting with different people, from my encouraging mentors, energetic trainees, and inspiring colleagues. These personal collaborations motivate and advance my research toward understanding cellular communications that promote metabolic health and organism longevity.
