About me

Hi there! My name is Tobie Lee, and I am a PhD student in the Quantitative & Computational Biosciences Program at Baylor College of Medicine. My research interests lie in finding novel experimental and data-driven approaches to better understand tumor microenvironment and metastasis. Outside of research, I enjoy running (trying to qualify for Boston), reading novels and short stories, cooking, playing soccer, and checking out museums.

Previously, I worked as a software engineer at Scinamic for a couple years, which sparked my interest in developing computational tools to support translational research. I also worked as an assay biologist at C4 Therapeutics and in Dr. Matthew Hall’s (Guanine) Biology Group at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, where I was involved in several high-throughput screening projects and developing assays for target validation. I received my BA in Biology and Applied Mathematics at Washington University in St. Louis. My undergrad research experience in the Sibley Lab was where I first got into biomedical research.
