About Me
I am a dedicated researcher and 5th-year medical student with a deep fascination for the evolutionary dynamics of proteins and their genomic impact. Specifically, understanding the structure and function of proteins, their evolution, and also their role in human diseases. I am open to new technological developments and addressing emerging medical challenges. I bring a creative and medical perspectives to projects, introducing new ideas and providing help to research interns on computational methods and genomic tools.
My skill set includes a comprehensive understanding of diverse methodologies, including structural topology, variant analysis, homology, ab initio molecular modeling, signal transduction, alternative splicing, protein-protein interactions, molecular mimicking, ancestral protein analysis. Moreover, I have experience in editing medical-structural databases and working with neural transporters. I possess experience in conducting statistical tests and correlation analysis. Through my involvement in different labs, I am acquainted with at least three distinct statistical analysis computer programs. My skills extend to performing Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Multimer Predictions for both globular and membranous proteins. For intricate calculations, I am familiar with various supercomputer infrastructures.
Beyond my academic pursuits, I am actively engaged in advocacy work, focusing on mostly planetary health, the climate crisis, and open science. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I actively participated in translation projects to share crucial information. In my perspective, public health significantly benefits from open societies.
