Welcome to my research website!

​

I am a PhD student in Prof. Adi Stern's Lab, where I specialize in bioinformatics and viral evolution, with a primary focus on SARS-CoV-2.

​

My research explores how viruses evolve, adapt, and impact their hosts over time, using computational approaches to analyze genomic data and uncover patterns of mutation and selection.

​

Driven by a commitment to understanding viral dynamics, my work aims to contribute valuable insights into the mechanisms of viral persistence, emergence, and resistance. I’m passionate about leveraging data to address complex questions in virology and push the boundaries of what we know in infectious disease research.
