A Bit About Me

I am a computational biologist with a deep fascination for the unfathomable world of viruses and other microbes. Currently, I am a postdoc researcher at the Institut Pasteur, Paris.

My works lies at the intersection of virology, metagenomics and computational biology. I develop analytic tools and large-scale workflows to expand the diversity of the hidden viroshpere (i.e., viral "dark matter"), and to decipher the complex interactions between viruses and their hosts across ecosystems and time scale.

At heart, I’m driven by a desire to explore what lies beyond the boundaries of known biology. I believe that viruses, as both ancient and innovative biological entities, hold profound clues about the origins of life, the evolution of genomes, and the ecological dynamics. Through computational discovery and interdisciplinary collaboration, I aim to bring this invisible frontier into the light.
