Hey there! 👋 I’m Adib Miraki, a passionate Bioinformatician working with the Lotfollahi Lab at the Sanger Institute.
By day, I dive deep into the world of single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, using machine learning and AI to uncover the hidden language of cells, predicting how they behave, interact, and evolve across different environments. Think of it as giving cells their own digital voice and letting data science do the talking!
By night (or when I’m not glued to my screen), you’ll probably find me either kicking a football, cheering on my favorite team, or cruising around on a cycling adventure, chasing the wind and exploring new routes. 🧬⚽🚴
Always curious, always caffeinated, I love combining science, tech, and creativity to solve complex biological puzzles.
Let’s connect and chat about cells, science, or sports — your pick!
