I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at TU Dresden, where I specialize in applying advanced mathematical modeling to understand complex biological systems, particularly in the fields of cancer research.

1/5 New paper out in EPJ Special Topics with Josué Manik Nava-Sedeño (UNAM) & Andreas Deutsch (TU Dresden)! We built a cellular automaton framework for modeling genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous cell populations. 🧵

I'm super happy and honored to be nominated for the Deutscher Studienpreis (German Thesis Award) by @koerber-ip.bsky.social for my PhD thesis on mathematical modeling of the impact of tumor heterogeneity on cancer evolution! I'm looking forward to meeting the other nominees at the final in Berlin!

Today the Royal Society will meet to discuss “Fellows’ behaviour”. Without doubt the fellow they will primarily be discussing is Elon Musk. The behaviour may range from his public dissemination of unfounded conspiracy theories to his attacks on the science 🧵 1/38
