Graduate Student
I am a fourth year doctoral candidate at the University of California, San Diego. My main interests lie in both innovating new computational methods and applying them to systems biology of human metabolism, particularly hematopoetic cells, with focuses on biomarkers and understanding infection and inflammation. I am also the president of the Bioengineering Graduate Society (BEGS) at UCSD.
