Sebastian Bassi

I have a degree in Science and Technology at Quilmes National University (Diplomado en Ciencia y Tecnologia) and I spend most of my time writing python programs to solve bioinformatics problems. Currently I am assisting on the sequencing of the mitochondrial tomato DNA at INTA (National Institute of Agriculture of Argentina) and writing a book called "Python for Bioinformatics".

My main interest are: Python programming, bioinformatics, open source software advocacy, science, skepticism and learning new things.

I am a proud member of:

• Biopython: A collection of Python tools for computational molecular biology.
• PyAR: Python user group in Argentina
• SoLAr: Software Libre Argentina
• Wikimedia-ar: Argentinean chapter of Wikimedia.
