Multidisciplinary Scientist and Writer with a Passion for Data Visualization and Analytics

Profile Summary

My published work deals with problems involving Molecular Biochemistry, Physics, Computational Modeling and Statistics. In my first published papers I used clustering with a hybrid metric to explain the biochemical similarities between amino acids from quantum mechanical computations. More recently, I found a deeper explanation about the genetically-similar amino acids at the molecular evolution level through Big Data Analytics. Recently I developed in Python a new molecular model that includes topological information of the electron density. The skills developed for these studies include coding in Python, using mathematical and graphical libraries, database reading, clustering, metric testing, etc. In addition, I have been the main and corresponding author of most of my work. I am a creative, open minded, cultured, focused and insightful generalized thinker.
