Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMiguel Cosenza-Contreras is a proteomics data scientist and postdoctoral researcher with eight years of experience applying mass spectrometry and computational methods to cancer, cardiac disease, and infection biology. Trained as a biologist with a PhD from the University of Freiburg, he bridges experimental design and reproducible data analysis, developing R/Bioconductor pipelines for complexome profiling, co-immunoprecipitation, and proteolytic activity studies. His expertise spans TMT and label-free quantification, proteogenomics, terminomics and lipidomics integration, alongside R package development and reproducible workflows (Quarto/Markdown). At the SFB1381 he builds and maintains bioinformatic infrastructure that turns challenging multi-omics experiments into interpretable biological insights. Colleagues value his combination of hands-on sample- and instrument-level knowledge (Q Exactive, timsTOF) with rigorous statistical modeling and machine learning. An often-overlooked strength is his ability to translate detailed bench protocols into scalable, version-controlled analysis pipelines that accelerate collaborative clinical research.
