Medicine × Computation × Open Science

Building tools to understand where cancer biology happens.

I am a medical student completing a thesis in bioinformatics at TIGEM. I work autonomously on computational oncology, spatial multi-omics, and reproducible scientific research software.

01 / Computational Lab & 3D Twin

3D Biophysical Models: Interactive in the Browser.

Cancer biology demands spatial models you can directly inspect. Explore the WebGL digital twin, 60 FPS numerical solvers, and real-time reaction-diffusion simulations published on Hugging Face and GitHub.

02 / Current Research

Two connected research directions, one reproducible workflow.

From mathematical biophysics of pharmacological sanctuaries to computational translational analysis of rare phenotypes.

Research SquarePublished Preprint

Translational Extensions & GIST Profile

An evidence-linked research package featuring an exploratory GIST phenotype score, trial protocol, candidate data registry, and CRI tools for research audit.

03 / Research Systems & Software

Open tools, models, and analytical assays.

Open-source packages, repositories indexed on bio.tools, and curated into international reference directories.

04 / Luca's Cave

Serious science. Lore, cinema, and roots.

Scientific work is rigorous, but the Cave is no sterile box. Here lives the philosophical manifesto, the cinematic scenes that fuel the journey, and the roots predating medicine.

A good researcher always carries a spare random seed.

Engineering Roots

Before medicine, I was building in Web3.

I previously founded Arbitrage Inception, an open-source DeFi engineering collective. That foundational background in protocol architecture, security research, and high-reliability deterministic systems directly powers my scientific computing workflow today.

Quotes & Cinema

The scenes that endure.

The Lord of the Rings · The Two TowersEnglish
“There's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for.”

When hope seems lost, Sam reminds us why it is worth pressing on.

The Lord of the Rings · The Return of the KingEnglish
“Sons of Gondor! Of Rohan! My brothers! [...] A day may come when the courage of Men fails... but it is not this day! This day we fight!”

Aragorn before the Black Gate: courage isn't the absence of fear, it is standing together against insurmountable odds.

The Hobbit · An Unexpected JourneyEnglish
“Saruman believes it is only great power that can hold evil in check... but it is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay.”

Gandalf and Galadriel: quiet everyday persistence outlasts loud force.

Naruto · The Unwavering WillEnglish
“I will become Hokage, no matter what it takes!”

Unrelenting determination, training arc grit, and zero intention of backing down.

Hercules · A True HeroEnglish
“A true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength, but by the strength of his heart.”

Zeus to Hercules: the defining power-up that truly counts.

Harry Potter · Snape's MemoriesEnglish
“After all this time?” — “Always.”

Two words carrying an entire lifetime of devotion.

Dragon Ball Z · Father-Son KamehamehaEnglish
“Release it, Gohan! Release everything you have!”

The defining moment when inner strength becomes a generational relay.

Bruce Almighty · Be the MiracleEnglish
“You want to see a miracle, son? Be the miracle.”

Morgan Freeman to Jim Carrey: real power isn't magic tricks, it is taking action yourself.
