Biography

I am a bioinformatician doing my PhD at the IBD lab of Dr. Julià Panès under the joint supervision of Azucena Salas and Juanjo Lozano. My research interests include functional enrichment, transcriptomics, data integration and analysis outside comparisons. I created some packages deposited in Bioconductor and contributed to other packages on CRAN, Bioconductor and GitHub. Outside work among other things like hiking, I enjoy jumping rope & diabolo as hobbies.
