My goal is to facilitate the translation of innovative research into impactful clinical outcomes.As a scientist, I developed a strong expertise in cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, advanced microscopy, mathematical modeling, biomedical and tissue engineering, and scientific writing, leading teams to draft journal articles and study reports.
