About me:

I completed my PhD in the field of computational proteomics in the Biodata Mining & Applied Neuroinformatics Group at the Faculty of Technology at Bielefeld University (Germany) , funded by the International NRW Graduate School of Bioinformatics and Genome Research. Currently, I work with Hanno Steen's group to offer computational support and software development for the analysis of proteomics data. Specifically, I am interested in phosphoproteomics analysis and visualization.


Areas of Interest:
  • Application of machine learning / pattern recognition methods in biochemistry
  • Visualization of high-dimensional data
  • Statistical analysis of biological data
