I am very interested in biological questions that can be answered with the analysis of large data sets. I gained an engineering degree in Computer Sciences from University NUR back in my home country. I worked at the NGO FAN (Fundacion Amigos de la Naturaleza) for 2 years in the IT and Web Dept. Then I moved to Sweden in 2009 to study Bioinformatics I got involved in 2 projects with different biological backgrounds that helped me to put hands on into the bioinformatics world. I enjoy to be a bioinformatician, I feel bioinformatics is having a great impact in science and I am glad to be part of it. At the moment I am a PhD student at the applied bioinformatics group under the supervision of Prof. David Edwards, and Asoc. Prof. Jacqueline Batley. Also everyone in the group is part of the Australian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics (ACPFG Brisbane). My foucus is on studying the genomic diversity of the species Brassica juncea. I work with SNP discovery, genotyping by sequencing, gene loss, and the assembly of the B. nigra genome.
