I am an evolutionary developmental biologist investigating the systems governing biological pattern formation. My interdisciplinary research combines cutting-edge experimental techniques in developmental biology and biophysics with advanced volumetric imaging, focusing on the patterning and morphogenesis of skin appendages in diverse vertebrate models, including sharks, chickens and crocodiles.
