I am a postdoctoral researcher in biophysics working with Paul Francois at the University of Montreal. I’m broadly interested in how robust behavior emerges from biological systems, especially in embryonic development. See my Google Scholar for the most up-to-date preprints and papers.

I did my Ph.D. in physics with Pankaj Mehta at Boston University. I worked on models of cell fate differentiation combining landscapes and Hopfield models. During my Ph.D., I also worked on creating quantitative tools that provide insight into how cells make fate decisions. I developed scTOP (Github repo), a Python package for tracking cell identity from single-cell RNA-sequencing data using Hopfield-inspired cell fate coordinates. Feel free to reach out if you’d like help applying it to your analysis!
