Some things about myself
Greetings!
My name is Quang, and I am an aspiring biomedical data scientist from Vietnam currently living in the United States. I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in Quantitative Biomedical Sciences from Dartmouth College. I have broad interests in data science within the biopharmaceutical research sphere but I am most invested in using genomic technologies for public health purposes.

R programmer for the past 5 years and use it in most of my projects. I mostly use R to perform statistical analysis (e.g. glm, cmdstanr, lme4) in the context of genomic (mostly microbiome) data sets (e.g. phyloseq, dada2, DESeq2). I am proficient in utilizing the tidyverse and tidymodels ecosystem, have experience developing R packages and Shiny dashboards, and can develop workflows using targets.python mostly for interacting with biological databases (NCBI, Pathway Tools via biopython), and writing reproducible workflows (using snakemake). I also use python for machine learning coursework and personal projects (pytorch, tensorflow, and scikit-learn).Julia and C++ for writing analyses or algorithms that require performance. This is done either for personal projects or integrated with R (via Rcpp).Rust, nextflow
