Bioinformatics Scientist (PhD Candidate) | Expert in eDNA, Metabarcoding & Comprehensive Genomics

Profile Summary

I am a PhD Candidate in Molecular Genetics with 7+ years of professional experience in bioinformatics. I provide high-level computational solutions for complex biological data, specializing in Environmental DNA (eDNA), Metabarcoding, and Multi-Taxa Genomics. My approach combines rigorous scientific methodology with advanced data processing to transform raw sequencing reads into meaningful, publication-ready biological insights. Core Expertise: Environmental Genomics: End-to-end processing for eDNA and Metabarcoding projects across diverse ecosystems (Aquatic, Terrestrial, Agricultural). Microbial Profiling: Comprehensive analysis of 16S, 18S, and ITS datasets for biodiversity and microbiome studies. Genomic Analysis: Assembly, annotation, and variant calling for a wide range of taxa, including Animals, Plants, Bacteria, and Viruses. Scientific Visualization: Professional, high-resolution data visualization (Heatmaps, PCA, Phylogeny) tailored for high-impact journals. The Value I Deliver: I offer more than just data processing; I provide biological interpretation and methodological consulting. My goal is to ensure your results are scientifically sound, reproducible, and ready for publication or industrial application.
