Profile Summary

I am a Freelancer Bioinformatician with 10+ years of experience in Bioinformatics and Systems medicine, as well as 4+ years of experience in the Wet Lab. I have experience analyzing genomic data, such as SNP arrays and Exome-seq, as well as transcriptome profiles, i.e. microarrays, RNA-seq, as well as RT-qPCR data. Currently, my major focus is integrative Multi-OMICS Network Analysis in the context of Precision Medicine.
