    Collapse Overview
    Kevin received undergraduate degrees in Biology and Anthropology at the University of Washington Seattle and a PhD in Human Genetics at the University of Chicago. His doctoral thesis focused on identifying and characterizing genetic and epigenetic mechanisms underlying maternal transmission of asthma risk. He received the prestigious "Top 10 Clinical Research Achievement Award" of 2023 for his his work on "Maternal asthma and asthma risk in her children". As a postdoctoral scholar in the Lynch lab at UCSF, he is studying host-microbe interactions in early life and their impact on health and disease throughout the lifespan. His broad scientific goal is to understand the etiology of biological phenomena and transform basic science findings into meaningful diagnostic and therapeutic solutions. He is also passionate about outreach and mentorship and has served as a coordinator for the UW Genomics for Minorities Project and as an instructor for high school and undergraduate students in Phoenix, Arizona and in Oaxaca, Mexico as part of the Clubes de Ciencia initiative.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
