Bio
I am a Research Software Engineer at the Digital Competence Center.
I have a background in Chemical Engineering and Bioinformatics. During my masters studies, I gained hands-on experience in time series analysis, statistics and machine learning. I joined the Delft Bioinformatics laboratory in 2019 for my doctoral studies, where I explored antimicrobial resistance in pathogenic bacteria, novel gene function prediction and comparative genomics using pan-genome graphs.
After my PhD I have joined the Digital Competence Center as a Research Software Engineer. Today, with my scientific background and experience in research software development, I provide support to researchers to make their analysis workflows reproducible, easy to follow and adopt by the research community.
