Words Can Change the World! 

The other day, I stumbled upon a job description from a company describing the requirements. Here is the list, and I believe it should be applied in general to any bioinformatician looking for a job.

Apparently, Google Scholar thinks I am aging like fine wine in the world of citations. 🍷📖 For those who do not speak academic, this means my research is officially 40 times more popular than I ever was in high school. 😅 A huge shoutout to my brilliant collaborators, curious readers, and all those who thought my work was worth citing (or even skimming). You have made this nerd’s dream come true. 🤓✨ Heres to more ideas, more collaboration, and maybe even reaching the h-index equivalent of a mid-life crisis. 🏆 Cheers & keep on citing! 🤩

I approach bioinformatics workflows in a whole different way now that I’ve used Nextflow. It has evolved into a vital tool in my toolbox, capable of handling massive genomic datasets ensuring repeatability and scalability.

Chemical peels are dermatological procedures that involve applying a chemical solution to the skin, thereby exfoliating the top layers to allow cell turnover and enhance skin texture and tone. The process involves using different types of acids or chemical agents that can vary in strength, leading to varying depths of peel, from superficial to deep. The procedure needs to be carried out more than once to get beneficial results, and recent research has begun to explore their impact on the skin microbiome.

Pritam, born in Odisha, India, overcame a tough childhood after losing his father early and being raised by his single mother, a low-earning school teacher. Defying financial constraints and advice to avoid science, he pursued bioinformatics, marking a turning point in his life. Now a computational scientist and entrepreneur at Stanford, Pritam uses his expertise to transform data into actionable insights while embracing his passion for technology and gadgets

A unique chat show that probes our celebrities to face the facts and rumours about themselves and bring forth the truth for the audience. This show aims to clarify the stands of the celebs and see their reactions to the questions, gossip and rumours. This show seems to be edgy due to the controversial nature it holds and as it makes sure to push the envelope with the kind of topics it tends to discuss with your favorite celebs.

I actively promote the adoption of Nextflow for scalable and reproducible data analysis pipelines. I collaborate with the community to share best practices and drive innovation in workflow management.
