À propos
With dual master’s degrees in Bioinformatics/Genomics and General Computer Science obtained in 2016–2017, I bring a strong interdisciplinary foundation to computational biology. Since 2018, I have accumulated over five years of hands-on experience in analyzing Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) data, developing and maintaining robust analytical pipelines using Python, R, and Bash in Linux environments. My work has spanned multiple biological contexts, with a particular focus on transcriptomic data analysis.
My initial experience as a bioinformatics engineer ( TAGC, 2018–2019) involved the development of RNA-seq bulk/miRNA-seq pipelines for both internal projects and external clients. I gained proficiency in Snakemake, Conda, and cluster computing (TORQUE), laying the groundwork for my subsequent specialization.
Previously, at CIML (2021), I contributed to two studies on the early immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in the human lung using scRNA-seq data. My responsibilities included preprocessing (CellRanger), clustering (Seurat), dropout correction (MAGIC), and gene signature identification through integration of public datasets and tools like BubbleMap and cMAP. I also implemented reproducible workflows using Docker/Singularity.
Between 2021 and 2023 at the C2VN (AMU), I led single-cell RNA-seq analyses on nine PBMC datasets to investigate thrombocytopenia-related genetic mutations (ETV6, FLI1, SLFN14). This included full pipeline development and application (e.g., cell hashing resolution, normalization, trajectory inference, and gene regulatory network reconstruction), culminating in two publications and collaborative outputs. I also contributed actively to manuscript writing, oral presentations at European conferences, and student supervision.
Currently, I have rejoined the “Dendritic Cells and Antiviral Defense” team led by Dr. Marc Dalod at CIML, following a productive collaboration in 2021. I am working on collaborative projects focused on the control of the innate immune response in lung transplantation, using both pig and human models.
Outside of work, I am passionate about hiking, cinema, board games, and motorsport.
