👩🏻‍💻 Hello World!
Biomedical Scientist • Bioinformatician • Scientific Data Consultant
My name is Giovanna Prezia, I’m 28 years old and based in Curitiba, Paraná — Brazil.
I hold a Bachelor’s in Biomedical Sciences, a Master’s in Biotechnology, a Postgraduate Degree in Bioinformatics, and I currently work as a Bioinformatics Research Fellow at the Carlos Chagas Institute (Fiocruz).
I’m passionate about scientific data, reproducible analysis, automation and molecular biology.
I share part of my journey on LinkedIn and Medium, where I write about bioinformatics, data analysis, and career development.
Portfolio: https://giovannaprezia.github.io/
I design and optimize end-to-end pipelines for:
- RNA-seq (QC → alignment → quantification → differential expression)
- Ribo-seq (frame periodicity → ORF detection → microprotein insights)
- Genomics & variant analysis (GATK, VEP, annotation workflows)
- Multi-omics integration
- Scientific data cleaning, curation and visualization
I help research teams turn raw FASTQ files into clear, publication-ready results.
- Transcriptomics (bulk RNA-seq, Ribo-seq, smORFs, lncRNAs)
- Genomics (variant calling, annotation, filtering)
- Omics data integration
- Workflow design and reproducibility
- Data storytelling & scientific communication
- Quality control for research pipelines
1. Pipeline Review & Troubleshooting
Validation of analytical workflows, debugging errors, and improving reproducibility.
2. Custom NGS Pipeline Development
RNA-seq, Ribo-seq, variant analysis, and automation with Python/R/Bash.
3. Full Analysis Package
From FASTQ to figures: aligned results, DE outputs, functional interpretation.
4. Scientific Reports & Data Visualization
Publication-ready plots, figures, and structured documentation.
5. Data Preparation for Papers/Projects
QC summaries, methodology sections, workflows, and supplementary files.
