Knowledge Sharing

Here's the knowledge & expertise I wish to share with anybody who wants to.

Computational techniques & resources:

PCA (Principal Correspondence Analysis) & CA (Correspondence Analysis)
Correlation Measures (Pearson, Spearman)
Standard Affymetrix Microarray Analysis
- (CEL files handling, Normalization, Signal computation (e.g. rma), Exploratory Analysis, Differentially Expressed Genes)
Clustering (hirerarchical, K-means, CLICK, etc...)
Statistical tests (t-test, Fisher's)
Gene Ontology

I usually program with:

[http://cran.r-project.org/ R] (see also [http://www.bioconductor.org/ Bioconductor])

Biological Systems and Pathologies I've been working on (in order of confidence):

Mammalian Immune System (focus on Dendritic Cells)
Ischemic Stroke & Atherosclerosis
Mammalian Chromatin Modification
Yeast Cell Cycle

Resume & CV

I was born in Saronno (VA, Italy) in 29/07/1981. I lived, studied and worked in the Milan metropolitan area till November 2007. I got my BSc in Molecular Biotechnologies (July 2003) and my MSc Bioinformatics (July 2005) at Università di Milano-Bicocca. I started my PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology at Università di Milano in 2005.BR My scientific interests are:

Pathways and Networks
Human Phenotypes
Expression Data and Transcriptional Regulation
Biomedical Knowledge Engineering & Representation
Philosophy and Sociology of Science

Trivia & Amenities

I like to...

travel, and discover new cultures
meet people
discuss ideas
take more than 45' to have lunch or dinner
swim, walk, trek
write runes (still have to learn ideograms...)
drink beer
throw snowballs (look out...)
laugh
