About me

My background is in molecular biology and bioinformatics, specializing in genome informatics and IVD/PGS applications. I have worked on bioinformatic projects in academic and commercial settings. As a bioinformatics consultant I am now available for freelancing project work.

I can work in a team with lab scientists or software developers but I can also plan and execute your projects independently.
Previous employment included:

• Development and application of a world-leading genome annotation pipeline in a bioinformatics team (Ensembl, mostly Perl, some Java)
• Infrastructure development and data management as part of a large international collaboration (ENCODE, mostly Perl)
• Development of genomic testing applications, specifically for in-vitro diagnostics (IVF, chromosomal screening, BlueGnome Ldt. & Illumina, Perl, MatLab, Python, C++)

Most projects required design, prototyping and testing phases. Some were executed to ISO 13485 (medical devices) standard. Writing good documentation for software and projects as well as peer-reviewed scientific publications is something I consider important and enjoyable. Helping customers to use my software and develop new ideas with them is a main driver for me.

Further keywords for my services: high-throughput methods, pipeline development, database design, website design, data analysis, Unix/HPC/Cloud systems, bash scripting, NGS data processing, IVD & LDT development, genetic screening applications, reproductive health, Illumina sequencing, bioinformatics consultancy.
