About Me

Hi, my name is Anasthasia.

I graduated from Yale University in 2023, where I double-majored in Chemistry (BS) and Art (BA) on a full scholarship through the Questbridge match program. I was heavily involved in multiple student publications spanning a variety of topics during my time there (both as creative director and core contributor). I was also an undergraduate researcher in multiple labs that studied very different things. 

Upon graduating, I began a 2-year rotational research program at AstraZeneca. You can read more about that program here. At AZ, I have been applying my background to problems in structural biology and computational chemistry. My first 8-month rotation focused on studying subcellular localization of AKT-pathway proteins using targeted proteomics. Then I worked on creating and evaluating models/workflows to help identify novel molecular glue protein targets. I am also worked on creating a GNN-based scoring function for predicted antibody-antigen complexes.

I am currently in the Bay Area, where I started a Biophysics PhD program at Stanford University. If you're interested in having me join your group or talking about my current/past work, please reach out to me at [my last name]@stanford.edu (and feel free to glance at my CV through the front page of this website).

I like reading papers and I like collaging. This website should reflect that.
