Bioinformatics field is growing so fast that it's almost imposible to keep up. It's overwhelming but exciting at the same time! It got me thinking about all things I'd like to learn and the little time I have πŸ₯² It's so hard to choose one area to focus on! How are we doing it?

I've been reflecting a lot these days about the role of creativity in science, how we're not though of as creative people because we work with numbers and logic... I left some of my thoughts in this post if anyone's interested πŸ₯°β€οΈ

The past week I attended the #X-meeting in João Pessoa, Brazil. I had a blast! I got to present my research, presented a research project for the Brazilian Bioinformatics League and won the third place! It was a week full of amazing science, great encounters and lots of fun❀️

Super excited to share this news! πŸ₯³I've been participating in the biggest bioinformatics competition in Latin America 🧬 (LBB) with two of my lab mates.
We successfully completed the first two stages and now we're going to the finals which will be held in the Brazilian bioinfo conference in June! πŸ‡§πŸ‡·

Next stop: Costa Rica! πŸ‡¨πŸ‡·
Super excited and grateful for this huge opportunity! As a biologist just getting into AI this will definitely boost up my career and research! Can't wait to spend time sharing knowledge and learning from other researchers of the field!

Today I learned a valuable lesson. NEVER run OMAmer with the LUCA database on my own computer. HPCs exist for a reason and the reason found me and slapped the hell out of me. Rookie mistake out of laziness, can't lie (I had to make the meme, laugh out my disgrace)

I've been having deep thoughts about my research goals and how I ended up stuck between wanting to be a bioinformatician but being mostly formed to be a computational biologist. I feel like in Latin America we haven't talked enough about the differences, shouldn't we be discussing this a bit more?🧐

Maria Sibylla Merian, naturalist and scientific illustrator, was born #OnThisDay in 1647. She collected insects and raised silkworms as a girl, and was one of the first naturalists to observe insects directly and document metamorphosis.

As academic Bluesky grows, researchers find strengthsβ€”and shortcomings Platform fosters collegial interactions among scientists, but potentially limits interactions beyond the academic community

"Whenever I go to X now I see outrageous shit, and I actually get sucked into it. Bluesky is slower and more boringβ€”but it is a good boring, you know.”
