Biography

My interest in biology began with the science fiction novels and TV shows I loved as a child. At Yale University, I completed my BSc in Neuroscience and a double major in Comparative Literature, where I became fascinated with how we can harness molecular biology tools for therapeutic advances. I also conducted research at the University of Basel, where I contributed to the development of next-generation CAR-T cell therapies for glioblastoma. At Cambridge, I will join the Stem Cell Institute to investigate whether regenerative factors in mouse digit tips can be repurposed for tumor suppression, with the long-term goal of translating these findings into novel therapeutic strategies for targeting cancer. Alongside my scientific work, I am committed to improving public understanding of science through writing and education and hope to inspire the next generation of scientists, particularly young women, by bridging research and storytelling.
