Teaching
My priority as a teacher is to help students develop critical thinking skills by creating an active learning environment where everyone feels included, stimulate student engagement, and reinforce integration of knowledge. Recently I taught a course on comprehending the organization and operation of cells, highlighting the inherent stochasticity and fluctuations of biological processes such as gene expression, regulation, mutation, and evolution. Through a series of hands-on tutorials, journal club discussions and problem solving exercises, sudents acquire skills in the use of mathematical and computational tools, such as: memory-less stochastic models, ODE integration, stability analysis, and more. Overall, this course includes a broad range of analytical and problem-solving skills, which can be applied to many different fields within the biological sciences.
