PhD in Engineering
Postdoc Researcher
University of Fribourg
Zürich, Switzerland
I'm a researcher and developer specializing in employing advanced computational techniques to analyze genetic data and unravel the evolutionary history of species and populations. My expertise lies in computational population genetics, mathematical modeling, and optimization algorithms. Notably, I've led the development of GADMA, an easy-to-use software for automatic demographic inference. When I'm not diving deep into genetic data, you might catch me doodling bunnies demonstrating demographic history or other bizarre illustrations for my presentations. You can check out these humorous additions on my website along with my research work.
Currently, my projects encompass a diverse array of topics, ranging from demographic inference and the inference of selection to conservation efforts for endangered species. I am also proud to be a part of the PopSim consortium — a community-driven effort to standardize population genetics. My passion lies in exploring the intricate dynamics of evolution and genetics, and I'm always eager to connect with like-minded individuals for discussions and potential collaborations (feel free to email me). Thanks for stopping by!
