💻About Me
As a computer biologist and Ph.D. candidate in Ecology and Evolution, my research focuses on the evolution of antibiotic resistance and biosynthesis. I use computational methods to study how bacteria develop resistance to antibiotics and how they produce biomolecules that are essential for their survival and growth. My work has helped to improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying antibiotic resistance and biosynthesis and has the potential to inform the development of new strategies to combat bacterial infections and improve the production of biomolecules for medical and industrial applications. In addition to my research, I am passionate about teaching and mentoring, and enjoy working with students to inspire their curiosity and creativity in the field of biology.

As a computer biologist and Ph.D. student in Ecology and Evolution, my mission is to study the intricate evolutionary patterns between bacteria, antibiotics, and biomolecules. Through computational methods, I explore the evolution of antibiotic resistance and their biosynthetic pathways. My work not only enhances our understanding of these fundamental processes but also holds promise for practical applications.
Areas of Focus:
Antibiotic Resistance: I focus on the genetic and molecular mechanisms behind bacterial resistance to antibiotics. By deciphering these adaptations, I contribute to the fight against drug-resistant infections.
Biosynthesis: Biomolecules are the building blocks of life. I investigate how bacteria synthesize essential compounds, uncovering novel pathways and potential targets for drug development.
Education and Mentorship: Beyond research, I am passionate about nurturing the next generation of scientists. I engage with students, fostering curiosity and creativity in the dynamic field of biology.
