After a Bachelor in Biomolecular Sciences and Technologies in Trento and after working in Novartis on a Data Analysis project, I decided to combine my biological background with my passion for computer science by enrolling in the Master in Quantitative and Computational Biology. Here, studying subjects such as Biostatistics and Machine Learning, I discovered a passion for data analysis, data visualization, and predictive model building. After taking part in several Data Science projects related to Biology, one of which is my Master thesis focused on applying novel feature selection methods for the discovery of new antimicrobial targets, I enrolled in the Master in Big Data & Social Analytics to strengthen and expand my knowledge in the world of Big Data and start my career in the field of Data Science.
