Bio

I’m currently a Research Associate at the MRC BSU in the University of Cambridge and a visitor at EMBL-EBI in the Petsalaki group. I also did my PhD at the MRC BSU (2021-2025), supervised by Oscar M. Rueda and Sach Mukherjee. Prior to this, I did an MEng in Information Engineering (2016-2020) at the University of Cambridge, where I focused on machine learning and computational biology.

I worked at Cambridge Cancer Genomics as an intern during my MEng and afterwards until its acquisition by Dante Labs. Following this, I worked at Vivan Therapeutics as a data scientist before starting my PhD.
