About
I’m a computational biologists using single-cell genomics data to understand human complex traits and diseases. I am an EMBO and Helen Hay Whitney post-doctoral fellow in the Pritchard Lab at Stanford University and a visiting fellow in the Marson Lab at the Gladstone Institutes.
Previously, I obtained my PhD at the University of Cambridge, working between the groups of Sarah Teichmann at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and John Marioni at the EMBL European Bioinformatics Institute. My PhD research focused on quantifying differences between biological conditions in single-cell genomics data, optimizing the use of cell atlases, and characterizing disease-related cell states, with a focus on tissue immunology.
My work relies on open science, sharing of resources and know-how. I am part of the core team of the scverse consortium of foundational tools for analysis of omics data in life sciences, where I am work on community outreach and events.
