Teaching interests
Research interests
I have a strong background in Molecular and Cell biology in the Biomedical sciences and became interested in Bioinformatics while working as a Post-doc. I therefore decided to do a Masters in Computational Biology to develop my Bioinformatics skills and have been working on several Bioinformatics projects since, including on single cell RNA-seq.
I am keen to collaborate on different projects with various groups, if you would like to discuss future projects with me or how I might be able to help with current projects please do get in touch.
