Where spatial biology
meets computation

I develop analytical frameworks that integrate spatial transcriptomics with histopathological imaging — enabling morphology-aware cell type discovery and tissue architecture mapping at subcellular resolution.

My work combines wet lab immunology expertise with advanced computational methods to bridge the gap between bench science and data-driven discovery.
