As an undergraduate in Physics at the University of Oxford, I became fascinated with applying physical, mathematical and computational methods to biological questions. In my PhD at Cambridge, I worked with computational models of RNA secondary structures in order to understand what types of structural changes are likely to occur through random mutations. This is relevant in evolutionary processes. In addition to my research, I served as Vice President of the Gates Cambridge Scholars' Council in 2019/20. I am now a postdoc at the University of Oxford.
