Marcela L. Alves
M.Sc.
Research Software Engineer
I work on the Modernising Medical Microbiology (MMM) research group. As part of the informatics team, I support the deployment of bioinformatics on cloud-computing infrastructure. Led by Prof. Derrick Crook and Prof. Tim Peto, the informatics team aims to enhance the escalation and latency of the processing of genomic data by applying software engineering state-of-art technologies.
After the migration of the research group's SARS-CoV-2 pipeline to Kubernetes, I am focusing on the deployment of a new Tuberculosis pipeline.
