Computational Biologist | Transcriptomics & R/Bioconductor Specialist

Profile Summary

I specialize in computational oncology, transcriptomic profiling, and in silico drug design, helping researchers and biotech startups transform massive, unannotated biological datasets into clean, publication-ready insights. As a computational biologist with a deep foundation in industrial biotechnology, I build rigorous analytical frameworks that solve complex biological challenges. Whether you need an end-to-end reverse vaccinology pipeline, downstream statistical filtering, or advanced molecular dynamics, I bridge the gap between heavy data and biological meaning. My core technical expertise includes: Transcriptomic Data Analysis: Proficient in processing and analyzing bulk RNA data, handling batch effects, and identifying diagnostic markers using R, limma, and Bioconductor. Computational Oncology: Experienced in developing novel, stagewise analytical frameworks for tracking disease progression (specifically lung adenocarcinoma). Structural Bioinformatics: Expertise in molecular modeling, 3D interactions, and structural visualization for target identification. Pipeline Development & Automation: Designing reproducible computational workflows for complex biological data. Beyond direct analysis, I have experience leading dedicated bioinformatics workshops, meaning I write clean, well-documented R-scripts that your team can actually understand and reuse. If you are a PI drowning in raw data, a startup needing overflow data curation, or a researcher looking for a fast, rigorous statistical partner to elevate your next project, let's collaborate.
