  • Advisor: Elvira Pirondini
  • Graduate Researcher

I earned my bachelor's degree from the Faculty of Life Science Engineering at EPFL in Switzerland, and I am currently pursuing a master's degree at the same university. From March to August 2023, I worked as a manufacturing intern at Medtronic in Tolochenaz, Switzerland. This experience allowed me to explore the application of the biomedical industry in the cardiovascular field. I am now focused on completing my master's thesis, which is the final step toward obtaining my degree. My research involves developing a 3D quantification model of dorsal root ganglia using high-resolution MRI.
