About

I am a postdoctoral researcher in computational biology in the Chan Lab on Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in NYC. Previously, I was a post doc in the Sims group in the MRC Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine at the University of Oxford, and even prior a Mathematical Genomics and Medicine PhD student in the Markowetz group in the CRUK CI at the University of Cambridge. I am an alumna of Clare College, Cambridge, Lucy Cavendish College, Cambridge, and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. I have supervised for the Bioinformatics course (Part II Computer Science) and taught in the MPhil in Computational Biology at the University of Cambridge, as well as in the Oxford Biomedical Data Science Training Programme.

Other projects I have been involved in are the Cambridge Resilience Web.
