Senior Bioinformatician and Data Scientist
I studied in a Mexican undergraduate program for genomic sciences and in a master’s program in biochemical sciences (but more oriented to computational biology). I have focused into inquire how certain properties in a network are related to dynamical features in different systems like transcriptional regulatory network on yeast or simulations of boolean networks of B cell differentiation models.
Then I suddenly became a bioinformatician, at the beginning building procedures to detect GMOs with NGS data, but later I got deeper in human genomics of genetic associated diseases. I have automated processes for high-quality variant calling and contributed to the creation of web applications for direct customer operation in this type of analysis. I even led a developing team for genetic reporting and continuously implemented ML on classification projects using variant population data.
I am a huge fan of Futbol (yeah in spanish for soccer ⚽), I really like to watch every 4 years the FIFA world cup!
I work with genomic data, processing it to obtain relevant biological information that can be converted later into knowledge. I have experience with high-quality variant calling with human sequencing/microarray data, ancestry estimations, GWAS studies, and clinical annotation of variants. I also have worked with bulk RNA seq data as well as microarray data to obtain differential expression profiling and de novo assembly of transcriptomes.
I like to learn technical skills around the IT industry (but not so deep). I use programming languages as tools to arrange data in ways that became easier to get insights into valuable information. I regularly use Perl
, awk
and R
for that scope, however, in the last months I’ve also made some advances in learning Python
, SQL
, and Go
.
I want to contribute to global projects on bioinformatics, looking for interesting patterns with different types of technologies. I still want to know how functions emerge in complex systems from different types of structures. Eventually, I would like to use this knowledge to improve the life of people systematically oppressed because of this improvable social system.
Let’s talk about science, data, genomics and complex systems.
Take a look of my projects!
