I work on genomics and biology projects, the kind where you have raw sequencing data, mass spec output, or protein sequences and you need someone to turn it into results you can publish or act on. I've done this across more than 67 projects on Upwork and through my PhD and postdoc, so I know what a clean analysis looks like and I know the shortcuts that cause problems later. Quick background: Actually postdoc in population genetics. PhD in bioinformatics and molecular evolution at Paris-Saclay (CNRS), where I worked on plant-bacteria interactions. Master's in bioinformatics from Sorbonne, and bachelor's in computer science from Descartes. I've been programming for over 10 years, mostly Python, R, and Bash, though I can work in Java, C, or JavaScript if a project calls for it. Eight years of building data pipelines specifically. What I do: Genomics and population genetics. GWAS, co-GWAS (PLINK2, Firth regression), population structure analysis (PCA, ADMIXTURE, pairwise FST), ancient DNA work (qpAdm, qpWave, ADMIXTOOLS2), variant calling and annotation. I've run these on human, plant, pathogen, and ancient samples. Genome assembly and annotation: De novo assembly from Nanopore or Illumina, gene prediction, functional annotation, genome comparison. Bacteria, plants, insects, human. I've assembled all of them at some point. RNA-seq: Differential expression from raw reads, co-expression networks, pathway enrichment. Full pipeline or just the analysis part, depending on what you need. Structural bioinformatics: AlphaFold2 batch runs, FoldSeek for structural comparisons, molecular docking with ClusPro, AutoDock Vina, or HADDOCK. I do the visualization too (PyMOL, ChimeraX), and create publication-ready figures, not just screenshots. Phylogenetics and molecular evolution: IQ-TREE2, RAxML, selection tests, gene family evolution, protein evolution. Proteomics and lipidomics: Mass spec data processing through to statistical analysis and biological interpretation. Pipelines: I build workflows, documented and tested with example data. Your team should be able to rerun them without me. Writing and code review: Methods sections, technical reports, manuscript figures. I also debug and review existing pipelines. If your code or script doesn't work, I'll fix it and tell you why it broke. Everything comes with commented code and R Markdown or Jupyter reports. Figures are made in ggplot2 or matplotlib and ready for submission. 100% Job Success score across 65+ projects. I reply the same day. "If you need a bioinformatics expert who's not only insanely skilled but also great to work with, Dr. Amira is the one. Would 100% work with her again!" (Client) "Amira delivered a thorough and well-structured technical review, including worked examples and code snippets that were very useful for demonstrating enablement. Her analysis was detailed, thoughtful, and delivered on time. I highly recommend her for bioinformatics and technical review projects." (Recent client) Drop me a message with your data and what you're trying to do. I'll get back to you with a plan and timeline.
