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.
