Camila Castillo -Vilcahuaman

Hi there! I am a currently a visiting researcher at the Microbial Ecophysiology Lab in Santiago, Chile. My main research interests are in microbial ecology and evolution, and the bioinformatics side of these topics. I am recently in a quest to a further abstraction of the concept of microbial communities, if its possible to do that. I also am a software developer in the IT industry, a side-job I prefer to mantain on LinkedIn, if you are interested in that side of me.

In this page you will be able to find my art and sci-comm projects too! Just head up to the projects section and you’ll be there. Keep in mind that I moslty write and engage with the public in spanish. Although I have done some work in english, I think it is important to write or talk about science in spanish, something I am quite passionate about.

I am always open to questions, collaborations and lengthy discussions over e-mail! I also offer consultory services in bioinformatics, if there is a need for some specialized help (unless you’re an undergrad, you just contact me and I can help, don’t worry :) ).
