Hi!

My name is Guilherme Bauer Negrini, and I am a Biomedical Scientist and a Biomedical Informatics professional. I have over ten years of experience in Biomedical Science research, most of which focused on studying molecular and behavioral changes in animal models of neurodevelopment disorders.

I have a strong background in Neuroscience, but recently my interests have been expanding to Bioinformatics, Biomedical Informatics, and everything related to Biomedical Data Science. I support and believe in biomedical research advancement through computational methods guided by ethics, usability, and reproducibility.

So many years of learning have also made me passionate about teaching and education. During these years at the university, I developed multiple courses and learning objects for undergraduate-level classes such as Electrophysiology, Digital Image Processing, and Biochemistry. I hope this website can also be a place to share and learn a lot.
