Biography
Sam Katz joined the Signaling Systems Section as a graduate student in the NIH-OxCam program in 2016. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge in 2020 (co-supervised by Dr. Fraser and Prof. Clare Bryant). As a graduate student, Sam built the SIGNAL platform for prioritizing candidates from high-throughput studies. His current focus is on characterizing how post-translation modifications, such as alternative splicing, regulate the inflammatory response. When not thinking about giant gene datasets Sam is most likely cooking from a cuisine that’s new to him or, if he will be presenting at lab meeting that week, baking.
