Visiting PhD student Research visit to the Highlander Lab from The University of Zaragoza Development and application of the AlphaPart programme to the Pirenaica breed of cattle in Spain Image Goals: Analyse genetic trend Expand AlphaPart to estimate the factors influencing genetic gain (intensity of selection, accuracy of selection, genetic variation, and generation interval) Improve programming skills Background I discovered my passion for genetics and research early. I spent my first years improving my programming skills and consolidating my knowledge of genetics. Recently, I started my research on genetic trends. I am specifically interested in: Genetics, genomics, and multi-omics Biostatistics Bioinformatics Programming language and software: R Linux and Bash Fortran Hobbies and personal interests I am a musician and love music - I spend hours and hours listening to (or playing) jazz, rock, blues, classical music or other styles of music. Climbing mountains and travelling are also in my plans. Relevant links Google Scholar Twitter GitHub LinkedIn ORCID Research Gate This article was published on 2024-09-02
