I am a versatile scientist trained in biotechnology, computational science and data analysis, i.e. a computational biologist and bioinformatician. Although I spend most of my time in front of a computer, I am occasionally found in the field or working at the bench. My multidisciplinarity leads me to interact with all sorts of scholars: molecular biologists, mathematicians, geneticists, computer scientists, ecologists, ...
