Sobre mi 
Hi! Welcome to my personal web page. I am Adrián Tarazona Sánchez and I have studied a Bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology at Universitat Politècnica de València. I have been passionate about science since I was a child, so I opted to study Biotechnology as the starting point of my research career. I am currently studying a Master’s degree in Biostatistics at Universitat de València and willing to apply for a PhD in bioinformatics or biostatistics, trying to apply statistical models and bioinformatic tools to neurodegenerative diseases.
Personally, I would like to exploit the information given by high-throughput biology (also known as -omics research), trying to extract as maximum information as possible of every single research that has been done regarding Alzheimer’s disease. I would like to integrate and develop in my thesis different statistical and bioinformatic tools for epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, lipidomics… that could be used in all stages of research against neurodegenerative diseases, from the diagnostic until medical treatments.
I am currently collaborating with the Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria La Fe analyzing data coming from miRNA sequencing of Alzheimer patients while I finish my Master studies and aiming to learn much more about bioinformatics.
Interests
Apart from my professional career as researcher, I have some hobbies I would like to be present in my life. I really consider myself a hard-worker that accomplishes his objectives within deadlines, but I need self-time managing. I dedicate my free time to:
-
Learn web development and manage local servers at home.
-
Read about informatics. I update myself with news regarding smartphones, laptops, computers, linux operating systems, servers…
-
I started to play paddle a few years ago when I started bachelor’s degree and nowadays I do compete in autonomic tournaments.
-
I have always played football and at present time I play amateur with friends. We founded a team and played different tournaments during summer. I also organized a football tournament at my village in 2018 where up to 14 teams of neighbour villages participated and I achieved near 20 sponsors for the tournament.
-
Events organization. I am really good organizing people and teams. Apart from the football tournament, I was the sports coordinator of my faculty during the last year of my bachelor’s degree, helping students to contact to each other for practishing sport. I also organized a small graduation catering for my promotion families.
