I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Francis Crick Institute in London, working in the Fröhlich lab. My research focuses on developing software and computational models to study dynamic biological systems. In particular, I am interested in the interplay between cell-cycle dynamics and signaling, the mechanisms governing cell and cell-structure size regulation, and how to integrate mechanistic and data-driven neural network models to investigate complex dynamic processes.

To facilitate efficient workflows when working with dynamic models, I have developed two Julia packages: SBMLImporter.jl and PEtab.jl. Further, in my modeling work I have used single-cell dynamic modeling to study nutrient signaling and reaction-diffusion models to investigate the size of self-assembled cellular structures in budding yeast.
