Personal Projects
Speaker at Okinawa-Europe Cultural Exchange Association (2024)
Delivered engaging presentation at outreach event for over 100 high school to encourage them to pursue a career in science.
Active Cell Transport in Complex Live Tissue (2022)
Developed and compared statistical and deep learning algorithms to characterize hemocyte transport in fruit fly embryo. Data was modeled as fractional Brownian motion, and the Hurst exponent was reconstructed with a root-mean-square error of 8%.
Quantum Factoring (2019)
Designed optical circuit to factorize number 15 using Shor's algorithm. Participated in two research competitions, national and international, where I communicated my results to a broad audience of over 200 non-specialists.
- 1st Prize at "Certamen de Jovenes Investigadores", Spain 2019.
- Awarded best project in Computer Science, Engineering and Telecommunications at "Step Into the Future", Russia 2020.
