Who am I?

The name is Hoda Akl. I am the type of person who can go down a philosophical rabbit hole trying to answer the question above. For all practical purposes, I will refrain from indulging in such an endeavor and attempt a more or less traditional introduction by answering another question.

What do I do?

Most of my days are consumed by coding and learning new things and I consider myself extremely lucky to get paid for it. I got my Physics Ph.D student at University of Florida. I worked in Dixit group doing computational and theoretical biophysics on understanding protein sequence variation and cellular heterogeneity. I had a great experience in our lab. It is an environment where students get the support they need to make progress academically, while sharpening their intellectual blades by giving and receiving constructive criticism.

Please ✉️contact me if you want to discuss an opportunity for collaboration.


Outside of my academic pursuits, I am interested in sharing knowledge and insights I have come across through different forms. Especially Books , so I maintain a blog where I share book reviews, as well as reflections on different topics. I’ve recently started a weekly Newsletter as another medium for sharing. I also have a YouTube channel where I share experiences and thoughts I believe are valuable. So far, the videos on the channel are in Arabic, I describe the content of the videos in English here.
