I am a PostDoc in Tim Saunders’ lab at the University of Warwick, where I study how cells generate and respond to mechanical forces to build tissues and organs. My work sits at the interface of cell biology, physics, and computation: I combine quantitative live imaging of developing embryos with biophysical modelling and the custom software tools needed to bridge the two. Across systems — from the fruit fly embryo to the avian neural tube — I ask a common question: how do forces generated at the scale of single cells add up to robust, reproducible tissue shape?
