About me
I’m currently a Masters student in Biomedical Informatics at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, where I’m diving deep into the world of data, cells, and everything in between. My journey started as an embryologist at the IVF lab, pipetting teeny-tiny embryos, watching blastocysts bloom, and constantly wondering why some embryos stop growing while others thrive. Spoiler: it’s still a mystery… but I’m determined to solve it 🕵️♀️✨
Lately, I’ve been blending my clinical background with cool computational tools like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics and machine learning to uncover the hidden language of cells 🧬🌈.
Can I now call myself a computational embryologist? 🤔
My current research interests:
• Using single cell and RNA sequencing to understand implantation failure in endometriosis (hello, cytokine chaos 🧨).
• Learning cell imaging to be able to visualize in the future what’s really going on inside embryos.
• Building models that can help embryologists and clinicians make better, data-driven decisions for patients thereby improving success rate of pregnancy in IVF.
When I’m not breaking my head over (updating certain packages in my global environment and wondering) why my code didnt work out or reading papers with way too many acronyms, you’ll find me making digital art 🎨, cooking extravagant meals 🥟, or wandering through NYC.
