Biosketch My research interests are focused in biotechnology; specifically in the use of high-performance computing analysis, modeling and visualization of data relating to degenerative diseases and brain-related disorders. I am currently working on analyzing large sets of imaged microvasculature to classify organs based on their capillary networks. The future application of this technology is generating simplified, synthetic microvasculature for next-generation printed synthetic organs for transplant patients.
