What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and allows me to apply my skills in molecular biology and bioinformatics to impactful research.

I am a dedicated molecular biologist and geneticist with over four years of experience in clinical diagnostics and bioinformatics. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Molecular Biology and Genetics, followed by a Master of Science in Nutrition and Microbiome. I have honed my skills in research and development, focusing on the intricate relationship between the microbiome and health.

Currently, I serve as a Special Associate Researcher/Bioinformatician at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, where I analyze next-generation sequencing samples using R and Python-based tools. My previous roles have included designing experiments for new product development and maintaining quality management systems in compliance with ISO standards. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute to innovative solutions in the field of molecular biology.
