Expert in Bioinformatics & Genomic Data Analysis | PhD in Human Genomics | AI & Precision Medicine

Profile Summary

I am a bioinformatics expert with a PhD in Genomics and extensive experience in genomic data analysis, algorithm development, and precision medicine applications. My expertise spans polygenic risk scores (PRS), pharmacogenomics (PGx), whole exome sequencing (WES), and whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis. With a background in computational genomics and software development, I specialize in building robust bioinformatics pipelines, integrating AI-driven analytics, and translating genomic insights into actionable clinical recommendations. I have led bioinformatics teams in industry, developed novel statistical methods for complex trait analysis, and collaborated on cutting-edge research in genomics and cardiovascular risk prediction.
