Greater Cambridge Area
I am a MSci student specialising in Systems Biology at the University of Cambridge. My research interest lies in studying genome evolution using computational approaches, and my past projects have ranged from bacterial pan-genomes to transmissible cancer.

I investigated bivalve transmissible cancer genomics. Using statistical and computational approaches, I study genomic patterns to infer evolutionary processes and tumour ancestry. This work aims to shed light on how genomic instability shapes cancer evolution in marine organisms.
I rescue stray cats in my local area and advertise for adoption.
I studied the evolutionary dynamics of Shigella virulence plasmids using statistical and machine learning approaches in Python. My analysis explored how mobile genetic elements influence plasmid maintenance and virulence, providing insights into the pathogen’s adaptation and evolution.
I intermitted from my studies due to health reasons and to care for my family member.
I used zebrafish models to study how Mycobacterium infections affect immune cell survival. My work involved molecular cloning, RNA microinjections, genotyping, and image analysis pipeline development. This project provided insights into the cellular pathways underlying host–pathogen interactions.
