| Computational | TCR Variational Autoencoder | This project at the UCL Cancer Institute was done as part of my BSc in Immunology, Infection and Cell Pathology.
Here I developed a variational autoencoder for human T cell receptor (TCR) amino acid sequences and showed that mapping healthy and diseased (lung caner) patient TCR repertoires into the model's representation space showed detectable differences in TCR distribution. | 2020 |
| Automating Cell Image Analysis Through Deep Learning | In this summer internship project at the UCL Cancer Institute, I developed a convolutional neural network-based computer vision program that can take in various types of scientific image data and accurately output the numbers and locations of objects of interest (such as cells or worms) seen in the image. | 2019 |
| Modelling Air Pollution and Climate Change | For a sixth-form science competition, I developed a real-time simulation modelling the effects of air pollution and deforestation on the Earth's surface temperature. | 2017 |
| Determining Optimum Investments in Monopoly | For my higher-level International Baccalaureate mathematics class, I used a Markov chain model to determine best investment strategies in the game of Monopoly. | 2017 |
| Modelling the Spread of Infectious Disease | As part of my higher-level International Baccalaureate biology class, I investigated and critiqued the SEIR compartmental model of infection. | 2016 |
| Wet lab | Summer Internship at the UCL Cancer Institute | Gained basic cell-based wet lab training and experience at the UCL Cancer Institute. | 2019 |
| Working with Drosophila | Gained basic Drosophila wet lab training and experience at the UCL Institute of Aging. | 2018 |
| Primitive Intelligence in Physarum polycephalum | For my extended essay for the International Baccalaureate programme, I conducted my own experiments cross-examining a theory on the underlying physical mechanisms of intelligent behaviour in P. polycephalum, an amoeboid organism. | 2017 |
