From Wet Lab to Web App
Bridging the gap between the bench and the cloud. I integrate wet-lab molecular expertise with computational data science to deliver end-to-end NGS solutions—from library preparation to interactive visualization.
Three roles, one mission. Like the triplet codon that translates genetic code into functional proteins, my expertise in NGS Science, Data Science, and Microbial Ecology combines to decode complex biological systems and drive scientific discovery.
End-to-end Next-Generation Sequencing expertise from library prep to data delivery. Experienced with Illumina and Nanopore platforms for amplicon, WES, and WGS workflows.
Statistical analysis and machine learning for biological data interpretation. Microbiome analysis, diversity metrics, and predictive modeling on HPC systems.
Exploring microbial communities through metabarcoding and ancient DNA analysis. From soil microbiomes to paleoenvironmental reconstructions.
Mapping proficiency across the three core domains.
Computational tools and analysis pipelines for NGS and microbiome research.
Comprehensive tutorial for processing metabarcoding datasets on HPC systems.
Workflow for scientific writing using Markdown with Zotero integration.
Beginner's guide to version control with Git and GitHub for research.
A decade of bridging laboratory science and computational analysis.
Peer-reviewed contributions to microbial ecology and ancient DNA research.
