Biography

As a computational biologist, I stand at the forefront of cutting-edge research, leveraging my comprehensive skills in both biology and programming to drive innovation. Over the course of my career, I have successfully steered the development of several impactful research projects, showcasing my ability to seamlessly integrate biological insights with advanced computational methodologies.

My proficiency extends beyond the realm of scientific discovery; I bring a strong foundation in project management, ensuring not only the technical success of initiatives but also their efficient and organized execution. This dual skill set allows me to navigate the complexities of interdisciplinary projects with finesse.

Having cultivated my expertise in diverse scientific landscapes, including experiences in France and the USA, I have gained a global perspective that enhances my adaptability and collaborative capabilities. Fluent in both English and French, I facilitate clear and effective communication in multicultural settings, reinforcing my commitment to international collaboration.

Currently on the verge of completing my Ph.D. in computational biology, I am poised to contribute significantly to the field. This academic pursuit underscores my dedication to advancing knowledge and underscores my commitment to staying at the forefront of computational biology research. With an excellent command of both English and French, I am well-equipped to engage with the global scientific community and contribute to the dynamic intersection of biology and technology.

Experience: Head of Bioinformatics Hub at CSIC (since Sep 2025): management of facilities for data analysis, HPC design and management, SOPs for genome annotation and bacterial strain characterisation, multi-omics analysis and data integration, and AI-based bioinformatics solutions. Previously computational biologist at the Proteomics facility of the Centro de Biología Molecular Severo Ochoa (CBM, 2024-2025), bioinformatics specialist at the Centro de Biotecnología y Genómica de Plantas (CBGP, 2020-2024) working on drought tolerance in grapevine, visiting scholar at the University of California, Davis (2023), and teaching staff at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (2022-2024).
