[[Project Background]]
-
My name is Jose Antonio Valencia-Castellanos. I am a Systems Engineer and Computer Science student at Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Cali, Colombia. I am really excited about joining the Latin American Group for this competition because it is an opportunity for researchers from the called “third world countries” to get actively involved in cutting edge fields such as Synthetic Biology. I hope our involvement sets the foundation stone for a Latin American Community that will explore and develop inspiring research projects in this field.

All my of my research work has been related to bioinformatics so far. I started my academic training in bioinformatics at McGill University during my exchange year. Afterwards I worked as a Research Assistant for Professor Michael Hallett at the McGill Centre for Bioinformatics. During this time, I was involved in a large project on identifying regulatory sub networks in Interaction Networks. This work was the basis of my undergraduate thesis that I will present soon at my home university.

Last but not least important, I would like to express my strong motivation for what we are about to explore in this competition. I am looking forward to use my knowledge and experience in Bioinformatics to develop something interesting and challenging in Synthetic Biology.

I have a strong interest in the medical field. My future career is to be a M.D. with a specialty in Gynecology. This profession draws me close because I want to make a difference by helping women. Another career that I am interested in is Infectious Tropical Disease. What makes this career appealing is that in my home country many people live and die with these diseases, and there are so few doctors and help to cure these patients.
