Hi there, I'm Youssef! πŸ‘‹

🧬 Microbiologist & Pathogen Bioinformatician

I bridge the gap between Wet-Lab Microbiology and Computational Data Science. My work focuses on leveraging genomic, transcriptomic, and metagenomic data to decode bacterial behavior, antibiotic resistance mechanisms (AMR), and microbial ecosystems.

With a strong foundation in microbiology, I build reproducible, automated pipelines to transform raw sequencing reads into actionable biological insights.


πŸ› οΈ Technical Toolbox

  • Languages: Python (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn), R (Bioconductor), Bash/Linux Shell, Markdown
  • Transcriptomics (RNA-Seq): Single-cell RNA-Seq (Scanpy, Seurat), Bulk RNA-Seq, Pseudo-bulk, Differential Gene Expression (DESeq2)
  • Genomics & AMR: Variant Calling (GATK, BWA), Genome Assembly (SPAdes), Pangenomics (Roary), Functional Annotation (Prokka)
  • Metagenomics & Microbiome: 16S rRNA Profiling (QIIME 2), Shotgun Metagenomics, Microbial Dysbiosis Analysis
  • Workflow Automation & DevOps: Snakemake (High-Throughput Pipelines), Docker (Containerization), Git/GitHub

πŸ”¬ Core Portfolio Highlights

  • 🦠 Bacterial scRNA-Seq: Unveiled rare cell states and prophage induction in B. subtilis using unsupervised clustering (microSPLiT dataset).
  • πŸ’Š AMR Genomic Epidemiology: Built an automated Snakemake pipeline to track SNPs and resistance profiles across 96 MDR P. aeruginosa clinical strains.
  • πŸ§ͺ Host-Pathogen Transcriptomics: Profiled M. tuberculosis and K. pneumoniae core gene networks under heavy antibiotic stress.
  • πŸ“Š Microbiome Data Science: Implemented high-throughput metagenomics workflows to detect gut microbiome shifts in Crohn's Disease and Type 2 Diabetes.

πŸ“Š "Turning complex bacterial sequencing noise into meaningful biological signals."
