PhD Student
East Carolina University
I’m a PhD student in the IDPBBC Biology Concentration program at East Carolina University, studying computational sperm motility to better understand how sperm movement patterns affect fertilization outcomes. My research involves developing algorithms and analytical tools to track, quantify, and simulate sperm trajectories under different physiological conditions. By analyzing large-scale motility data, I aim to uncover behavioral patterns related to capacitation and egg-targeting efficiency. I’m particularly interested in how these insights can improve sperm selection strategies in assisted reproductive technologies. Long-term, I plan to apply computational modeling and data science to biological systems in an industry setting.
