Curriculum Vitae

JORGE MIGUEL FERREIRA DA SILVA

I am a computer science researcher with a master's in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Porto and a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Aveiro. Currently, I am working as a Researcher on the GDI - Genomic Data Infrastructure project. My main research focuses on the development and application of machine learning and information theory concepts in bioinformatics. I have published numerous papers in quality venues and participated in significant European projects besides GDI, such as EHDEN, SCREEN-DR, MMIR, and EMIF. I actively collaborate with many international and national institutions and researchers and am a reviewer for esteemed scientific journals. I have received an IEEE Best Paper award for my research and have won 2 BioASQ challenges.
