Rydberg Supo-Escalante
I am a PhD student in the laboratory of Dennis Vitkup. As a computational biologist, I am interested in the application of mathematical models to study metabolic and signaling networks, evolution and developmental biology. During my undergraduate research I studied the processing of the drug pyrazinamide, used in tuberculosis treatment, as well as resistance to it using a modeling approach. I also worked with dynamical models of the gene regulatory network of myogenic regulatory factors with the aim of understanding the regulation between them.
