I am post doctoral cross disciplinary fellow (XDF) at the University of Edinburgh working in machine learning and statistical modelling of single cell genomics. My aim is to pursue cross-disciplinary research in the intersection of data science and biomedicine.

I am working with Catalina Vallejos and collaborate closely with Neil Henderson’s lab where we use multi-modal single cell technologies to decode the molecular mechanisms regulating liver fibrosis and regeneration. I did my PhD at the School of Informatics (University of Edinburgh) under the supervision of Guido Sanguinetti.
