About
I'm interested in science, evolution, virology, workflows, and the development of bioinformatics tools. I have a degree in Biotechnology but my expertise is in Bioinformatics. Currently, I'm a Ph.D. Candidate on Sciences at Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FioCruz), bioinformatician volunteer at Rede Genômica FioCruz (RGF - Fiocruz Genomic Network) and work as Bioinformatician Analyst at Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein (HIAE), Brazil.
Bioinformatician
My work on HIAE involves the development and application of bioinformatics workflows to analyze human genomics and code development to automatize tasks on AWS and through the use of APIs. To do it, I mainly develop with Workflow Development Language (WDL), Amazon Web Services (AWS), Docker, Git, Shell Script and Python in agile teams following the Scrum methodology.
During my Ph.D., I worked with genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2. I built the ViralFlow - with other members of RGF - a workflow that performs a set of viral genomic analyses from sequencing raw data. Moreover, I published key studies to understand several aspects of SARS-CoV-2 evolution during the pandemic in Brazil as well as I collaborated with several studies mainly on the biology of mosquito vectors of arbovirus and paleovirology.
To perform my Ph.D. research I worked with Multi-user Linux servers, PBS queue system, Docker, Singularity, Python, R and Shell Script.

Education
PhD Candidate in Biosciences and Biotechnology on Health
2020 - Present
Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FioCruz) - IAM, PE
My Ph.D. project research was about SARS-CoV-2 genomics and evolution. During this period, I did my research on the Bioinformatics Core of FioCruz and became a member of Rede Genomica FioCruz (FioCruz Genomic Network). I worked on a multi-user cluster with PBS system, I improved my skills in Python and Shell Script programming, as well as learned R, Docker, and Singularity. I developed - with the RGS staff - the ViralFlow, the workflow that was used to analyze more than 38k genomes in Brazil during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
Master Degree in Biosciences and Biotechnology on Health
2018 - 2020
Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FioCruz) - IAM, PE
My master's degree research was about Endogenous Viruses Elements in mosquito genomes. During this period, I did my research on the Entomology Department and Bioinformatics Core of FioCruz. I worked on multi-user Linux servers and started programming in Python and Shell Script.
Bachelor of Biotechnology
2013 - 2017
Universidade Federal do Pampa, São Gabriel, RS
During this period I started in the research field working for 3 years as a volunteer at Proteomics Applied Lab, where I studied Transposable Elements in a parasitoid wasp draft genome, using Galaxy and GUI software.
