Biosketch

After obtaining my PhD from McGill University in 2010, I moved to Columbia University to work as a Ritt Assistant Professor. Three years later, I joined the University of Warwick first as a postdoctoral researcher. Later, I won a Marie Curie fellowship with Samir Siksek, which allowed me to continue at Warwick until the beginning of 2017. Since then, I work at UAB under a Ramon y Cajal contract.

Research lines
