I like to fix things so I edit wikipedia when I think appropriate.
I'm Portuguese, have a degree in biology and supporter of Free software (free as in freedom). I enjoy programming and have done it since I started my PhD although I have no formal education on it. I enjoy learning and been taking online courses on Coursera.
I have a big interest on automation of quantitative data analysis (to the anguish of supervisors who just want the results) and enjoy writing elegant code.
Disclosures edit
I may edit pages about things I'm associated with and I'll try to be impartial. For full disclosure, I'll have a list of them here.
- I am one of the GNU Octave developers and the maintainer of the Octave Forge project.
- I am a contributor for BioPerl
- I am a contributor for gtksourceview (syntax highlight mainly used by gedit)
