Hi! I'm Sophia 🔮

Personal Website Google Scholar LinkedIn Twitter Substack

Hi! I am a third-year undergraduate student at the University of Pennsylvania conducting research in generative ML for scientific discovery. Aside from research, I study computer science and statistics in the Jerome Fisher Program in Management & Technology.

Currently, I’m part of the Chatterjee Lab, developing theoretical ML frameworks for biological design, and the Mitchell Lab, designing lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based delivery vehicles to transport mRNA across the blood-brain barrier.

My research ranges from developing theoretical Schrödinger bridge frameworks for generative modelling of branching and interacting particle systems to multi-objective RL and guidance techniques for discrete diffusion - but I’m always exploring new theoretical ideas and thinking about interesting problems to apply them to!

I also write long-form tutorial papers on foundational topics in machine learning and shorter technical articles on my Substack, Alchemy Bio. I recently released Foundations of Schrödinger Bridges for Generative Modeling (220 pages) and A Complete Guide to Spherical Equivariant Graph Transformers (99 pages), which aim to break down complex theoretical concepts for a broad audience.

If any of these topics sparks your interest, I would love to connect via LinkedIn or X.
