Claudia Mimoso

YSM Science Fellow

Claudia is a YSM Science Fellow in the Department of Genetics, under the joint mentorship of the Noonan and Reinke Labs. At Yale, Claudia is developing an independent research program at the intersection of RNA biology, neurodevelopment, and human health.

Claudia first worked at NYU Langone Medical Center and The Rockefeller University where she studied gene expression changes in psoriasis. She went on to earn a B.S. in Biological Sciences at Cornell University, where she also studied the role of an RNA-binding protein in modulating allele-specific gene expression in the Soloway Lab. Claudia then completed her PhD in Karen Adelman’s Lab at Harvard Medical School, where she studied mechanisms of metazoan transcription. Now, as a YSM Science Fellow, she is interested in fundamental principles of gene expression during neurodevelopment and how disruptions in this process contribute to neurological diseases.
