Ghada Nouairia
Assistant professor in Computational Hepato-Oncology with a background in biology.
I am a PhD in molecular genetics since 2018 (Carthage University, Tunisia). Driven by curiosity, I moved to explore molecular evolution as a computational biologist in Stockholm University. Now I redirected her skills to the exciting field of clinical research with focus on multiomics data
analysis of Primary Sclerosing Colangitis (PSC).
I am also part of the Center for Bioinformatics and Biostatistics (CBB) where I redirect my bioinformatic skills to mentoring and helping others. If you
need help with bioinformatics or biostatistics, please visit our website (see links section).
Reading is my drug and I read about science, psychology, history, politics and much more!
(2018) PhD in molecular genetics from Carthage university, Tunisia
(2013) Master degree in animal genetics from Carthage university, Tunisia.
(2010) Engineering degree from Carthage university, Tunisia.
