Bioinformatics Researcher | Vaccine Design & Drug Repurposing | Network Pharmacology Expert

Profile Summary

I am a Bioinformatics Researcher with specialized expertise in Network Pharmacology, Vaccine Design (Reverse Vaccinology), and In-silico Drug Repurposing. My core strength lies in transforming complex biological data into actionable insights and publication-quality visualizations. ​I am currently focused on advanced Pathway Analysis, utilizing R (Bioconductor) and the STRING database to construct intricate Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) networks. My technical proficiency includes: ​Functional Enrichment: GO (Gene Ontology) and KEGG pathway analysis using clusterProfiler and Enrichr. ​Network Analysis: Building and analyzing topological features of networks in Cytoscape. ​Drug Discovery: Epitope mapping for multi-epitope vaccine design and molecular docking for drug repurposing. ​Data Visualization: Generating professional bubble plots, cnetplots, and heatmaps for scientific manuscripts. ​With a background in academic research and manuscript preparation, I understand the rigor required for peer-reviewed excellence. I am committed to providing precise computational analysis and thorough biological interpretation to help clients achieve their research goals.
