About

I am a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard Medical School and the Schepens Eye Research Institute of Mass Eye and Ear. My research focuses on corneal endothelial biology, with an emphasis on understanding mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction, repair, and regeneration. I have extensive experience in molecular and cell biology techniques, including cell culture, imaging, and functional assays. My work aims to advance translational strategies to improve corneal health and therapeutic outcomes.
