After studying applied mathematics and computer science, I completed a Ph.D. in population genetics and bioinformatics. During this time I gained a strong expertise in statistical genetics and bioinformatics methods, and I wrote several software now widely used in the field. After my Ph.D., I moved to the University of Berne (Switzerland) (co-affiliated with the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics) as a postdoctoral researcher where I started to work more specifically on large human genomic data. I developed in particular several Bayesian models to identify genetic variants associated with complex phenotypes (e.g. Pygmies, Andeans and Tibetans) observed in different human populations or eth...
