プロフィール概要

I am a SADCAS technical signatory microbiologist with over 10 years of hands-on experience helping diagnostic laboratories in resource-limited settings achieve ISO 17025 accreditation. I specialize in bridging traditional laboratory quality management with cutting-edge bioinformatics and AI-powered solutions for data analysis and automation. My core expertise includes: #ISO 17025 Accreditation & SADCAS Assessments — End-to-end support for implementation, documentation, internal audits, and successful accreditation. #Bioinformatics — Genome assembly, annotation, BLAST analysis, and sequence data interpretation. #Machine Learning & AI — Predictive modeling for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and pathogen detection. #Data Analysis & Automation — Proficient in Python and R for laboratory data processing, statistical analysis, visualization, and workflow automation. #Digital Tools Development — Design of training courses, templates, SOPs, and automation tools tailored for diagnostic labs. I combine deep practical knowledge of microbiology and quality systems with modern computational approaches to deliver efficient, compliant, and future-ready laboratory operations. Whether you need help preparing for accreditation, optimizing data workflows, integrating AI for diagnostics, or developing custom bioinformatics solutions, I deliver practical results that save time and resources. Open to consulting projects in laboratory accreditation, bioinformatics, AI applications in microbiology, data analysis, and digital tool development for life sciences.
