Personal profile

Research interests

My research has consistently centered on the early stages of embryo development in the initial days of life across various species — from Zebrafish to Mouse and Human. I aim to understand when and how cells begin to acquire specific fates and identities, forming a diverse set of cells within the early embryo.

My experiences studying embryo development in various species have provided me with valuable insights from multiple perspectives. While different species exhibit distinct mechanisms in developmental events, this comparative approach has deepened my understanding and offered new ways to uncover answers to emerging questions. Additionally, my background in both basic scientific research and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) clinics has enriched my perspective on improving human embryo development and enhancing pregnancy outcomes. My ultimate goal is to leverage these insights to translate my knowledge and skills into practical advancements in reproductive health.
