Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJosé Pereira is a Senior Bioinformatician with 8 years of experience blending computational chemistry, molecular simulation and software development to accelerate antibody discovery and protein design. Trained in biotechnology and currently finishing a PhD in biochemistry at Universidade de Aveiro (with a Fulbright stint at Rutgers), he engineers research-grade tools—author of CarbGen for carbon microcrystallite modeling and ProtoSyn.jl for molecular manipulation—demonstrating fluency in Python, Java and Julia. At FairJourney Biologics he applies this toolkit to real-world antibody discovery pipelines, moving methods from prototype code to applied bioinformatics. Colleagues rely on him for bridging deep domain knowledge with reproducible software, and his GitHub shows an ongoing focus on molecular simulation and peptide design rather than generic data science.
