Brussels, Belgium

I am a software engineer working in computational biology. In my daily work I develop bioinformatic methods for genomic data analysis in biomedical research, with a special focus in cancer subtypes. I love science and contributing to research and technology development by solving complex problems in interdisciplinary teams. I would like to continue my career in the pharmaceutical sector as genomic data scientist.
