Brief bio

I am Bioinformatician interested in Genome assembly, third generation sequencing and population genetics.

I studied Bioinformatics at University of Talca (2003-2007). Then, I did a Ph.D. in Complex system at University Adolfo Ibañez (2013-2017) under the supervision of Alejandro Maass, Gonzalo Ruz, and Marie-France Sagot.

I worked as a research engineer in Mathomics (2008-2017) on several applied genomics projects (denovo genome assembly of Sultanina, Salmo salar, and Chinook salmon). Currently, I’m working as Postdoc in the ERABLE team (Lyon, France) directed by Marie-France Sagot on alignment-free algorithms.
