Summary
Jakub Widawski is a Senior Bioinformatician based in Granada with eight years of experience applying high-performance computing and big-data analytics to RNA-seq and single-cell projects. Trained with an MSc in Bioinformatics (HPC & Big Data) from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and a BSc (Hons) in Biological Chemistry and Drug Discovery from the University of Dundee, he bridges computational rigor and biological insight to support drug discovery. At Ardigen he builds reusable tools and apps, delivers custom RNA-seq analyses for clients, and consolidates public and in-house datasets into production-ready pipelines. His background includes in-depth statistical analysis and automation of reporting for leukemia research, plus early machine learning work on event classification and fraud detection. Colleagues value his combination of hands-on coding, reproducible workflows, and domain knowledge in allele-specific and imprinted gene expression. He often turns routine QC and data-processing tasks into reusable software, accelerating downstream biological interpretation.
