About

I’m an ELLIS PhD student in Fabian Theis’s group at Helmholtz Munich. Previously, I did an internship in the Machine Learning Group at the Arc Institute, supervised by Yusuf Roohani. Before that, I completed my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in computational biology at the Technical University of Munich.

I’m interested in developing machine learning models to understand how biological systems respond to change. My main interests are perturbation modeling and sequence-to-function modeling: predicting how cells respond to genetic, chemical, or environmental perturbations, and how changes in DNA sequence affect gene regulation.
