About me
I am a researcher with 10+ years of experience in molecular and computational biology. I published over 20 articles in peer-reviewed journals, 7 of them as first-author – 2.5 articles a year since I started as an undergraduate, with an average impact factor of 5.01 (JCR 2022). I also presented my work at more than 10 different conferences worldwide and have made an effort to always engage the general public to the extent that I could translate science to their everyday life and interests. I view it as my responsibility to give back to the community (both researchers and the lay public) by educating them and taking their input back to science.
Research
I started my career in preclinical and clinical biological psychiatry, transitioning between several types of analytical approaches, from genomics and transcriptomics to neuroimaging. Now, I aim towards yet another kind of high-dimensional data, the translatome.
Teaching
I have teaching experience at the undergraduate, medical residency, and postgraduate levels, I co-supervised 1 B.Sc., 4 M.D., and 1 M.Sc. thesis.
