Personal profile
Research expertise
I’m a young researcher with a keen interest in population and landscape genomics of all sorts of organisms (protozoa, viruses, fish,…).
I have well established skills in statistical data analyses and
bio-informatic analyses for population/landscape genomic, phylogenomic and -geographic analyses, and I do not mind making my hands dirty during field work.
Research expertise
Ik ben een junior onderzoeker met een grote interesse in populatie en landschaps genomica van allerlei soorten organismen (protozoa, virussen, vissen,...). I heb vooral expertise in statische en bio-informatische analyses binnen de context van populatie/landschaps genomica, phylogenomica en phylogeografie. Daarnaast ben ik zeker ook niet vies van wat veldwerk.
