jakobnissen/README.md

Welcome to my GitHub page

I'm Jakob, a biologist-turned-programmer, happy in my role as a research software engineer.

I work as an assistant professor at CPR, Copenhagen University researching metagenomics with particular interest in virus- and plasmid metagenomics. Biologically, my interests are in phylogenetics, molecular evolution and sub-genomic replicons. On the computer science side, I'm a Julia, Rust and Python enthusiast, contributing to BioJulia and Julia. I particularly enjoy writing optimized and generic software packages for bioinformatics.
