## What I'm looking for

```text
I’m seeking a junior opportunity in bioinformatics where I can expand my knowledge and grow my career.
```

## About

```text
At Agricultural Sciences Institute (CSIC), I completed a laboratory internship in plant–microorganism interactions, working with bacteria and fungi. I cultivated organisms, extracted genetic material, and studied survival in different environments.

During my internship at Universidad Complutense de Madrid, I investigated genetic tag identification and location in Drosophila and analyzed differential nervous system expression using in situ hybridization. I’m completing a Master of Science in Bioinformatics, with only my thesis defense pending, and am seeking a junior opportunity to grow in the field.
