About

I hold a research master's degree in Neuroscience and Biotechnology.

Following my graduation, I worked as a researcher for an international research project, PRIMA PROMEDLIFE.

I have extensive experience in bioinformatics, particularly in the analysis of multiomics data. I have co-developed tools for multiomics data analysis, including R and Python libraries, and have contributed to the development of open-source web-based tools. Most of these tools are the subject of peer-reviewed publications.
