Hi 👋, Welcome to my profile!

Bioinformatics & Computational Biology Researcher based in Germany, with an MPhil in Biotechnology.
I combine molecular biology, computational research, and software engineering to turn complex biological data into actionable insights for drug discovery and biomedical research.

My expertise spans computational drug discovery, structural bioinformatics, genomics, transcriptomics, molecular modeling, and scientific software development. I've authored multiple peer-reviewed publications and built computational workflows, bioinformatics pipelines, and scalable applications that support biological research and data analysis.
