undefinedMotivation
After reading the Sr/Lead Data Scientist job description with great interest, I can really see myself in this position. Through my work I have vast experience in working with omics data as well as developing methods to analyse large data sets. I also have both experience and a deep interest in machine learning and I have experience in supervising master’s and PhD students. All in all, I think it would be an amazing opportunity for me to be part of the AI and Analytics Team and contribute significantly with my competences and experiences in the field of bioinformatics. I hope I will get the possibility to elaborate the abovementioned qualities in a personal interview.
