Originally from: Maryland, USA
Previous institutions: Tulane University - BS in Cell & Molecular Biology // also majored in computer science and minored in mathematics
Research interests: Computational Biology, Genetics
“I hope to pursue research in computational biology: I want to leverage computer science and computational tools to investigate novel questions in biomedicine. My major interests lie in non-communicable diseases (including acute injuries like TBI), chronic pain, gene-environment interactions, genetic variation, and chronic illness. I’d love to explore any of the above topics through computational drug discovery, machine learning, genome-wide association studies, etc. My research interests are computational in nature, but I am not opposed to incorporating a wet lab component.”
