Profile Summary

PhD in Biology with strong expertise in genetic and epigenetic regulation. Worked on DNA/RNA structures as regulators of biological processes. +6 years of experience in Next-Generation sequencing analysis, including genetic and epigenetic profiling. Passionate about coding and non-coding regulatory elements in the contex of normality and disease. Currently working on stem-cells and embryo development on non-model organisms to expand our understanding on this fields. Always excited about new questions in the field of evolutionary biology, and designing computational pipelines to explore them. Available in English, Spanish and Portuguese!
