Teaching & Outreach

My academic activities include undergraduate course assistance, guest lecturing in bioinformatics, research seminars, and scientific outreach for pre-university students.

Guest Lectures & Workshops

  • Building Academic Websites with R & Postcards | February 2026
    Guest Lecturer — LCG Bioinformatics Module (UNAM)
    Taught undergraduate students how to construct, design, and deploy clean academic personal websites using R Markdown and the postcards package.

  • Single-Nucleus RNA Sequencing (snRNA-seq) Workflows in Neurogenomics | February 2026
    Guest Lecturer — LCG Bioinformatics Module (UNAM)
    Presented research from my project at the Lieber Institute for Brain Development (LIBD), detailing single-nucleus transcriptomic processing, quality control, and cell-type profiling in human brain tissue.
