Experience

Oct 2022 – present

post-doc researcher at KU Leuven

Since September 2022, I have joined the Lab of Microbial Systems Biology at KU Leuven and Prof. Karoline Faust group. The lab focuses on the structure and dynamics of microbial communities with systems biology methods. My contribution is in the modeling tasks of the 3D’omics project.

Oct 2020 – present

research associate at GeomScale

GeomScale is an open source project developing algorithms for geometric statistics. This field has essential benefit for biologically oriented problems especially in metabolic models analysis.
