About me!

A little about me:

  • I’m a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University Hospital Basel & University of Basel.
  • I’m very passionate about biology/bioinformatics/computational biology/data science and building open source tools with R/Python and Rust to help the community.
  • I enjoy sharing with people! and here my goal is to create a space to meet others in the field or people who share the same interest!

Want to help organize?

I would be glad!
If you are interested in helping choose topics, find speakers, or shape future events, please chat with me after this session. All help is welcome!
