BSc Biochemistry @ U.Porto (FCUP & ICBAS)
MSc student in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology @ U.Porto (FCUP)

Love to discuss science and topics such as evolution, software development and molecular biology.
If you ask me, network approaches to biology have so much untapped potential. They still feel niche, even though they capture the relational context of biological data so well. You don’t even need fancy multi-layer ML; classical network analysis is still very informative.

As a bioinformatician, two zsh plugins became non-negotiable for me: zsh-autosuggestions (autocomplete from my command history) and zsh-syntax-highlighting (green = valid command, red = typo). Lifesavers for shell scripting!

What else in your terminal setup?

Navigating a big question lately: Is a #PhD the right path for me, and where should I look?

If any professors, PhD students, or postdocs are open to a 15-minute virtual coffee to share your journey, I’d love to connect. DM me!

One week into my MSc thesis, I started a new Obsidian vault as a "second brain". Funnily enough, one node already acts as a hub, linked to most of its cluster.

What helps: a daily note template, and linking new ideas to something I already wrote.

How do you track your research?

Happy to join Bluesky!

I'm eager to post and discuss topics I'll find interesting for my thesis (MSc).

I'm not hoping for tons of reach, so I'm doing this as a personal diary thing. :) If you happen to see this, reach out and let's talk science!
