Hi! I am a Research Scientist in Artificial Intelligence applications that accelerate scientific discovery.
I sit on the bridge between applications and technology, with the aim of discovering how algorithmic developments such as AI can enrich our understanding of complex problems.
This website hosts a collection and summary of my work, talks and hints on the small habits that keep me living a happy and satisfying life.
