Hi! I am Isin

I am a Ph.D. fellow at the University of Copenhagen, supervised by Thorfinn Sand Korneliussen and Rasmus Nielsen.

I am interested in bioinformatics, population genetics and statistical genomics. More specifically, my research interest revolves around developing novel methods and statistical frameworks aiming to disentangle evolutionary histories of populations, and implementing these methods into fast and efficient software.

I am a Linux geek (\insert <i use arch btw> & i3wm & vim). I love statically-typed & systems programming languages, and investigating/finding/fixing/thinking-about bugs, especially the most sneaky and annoying ones. I enjoy reading, writing (available on demand!), video games, maths & stats, programming, stoicism, rambling about philosophy and existentialism, playing piano & electric guitar, bullet & blitz chess, skateboarding and speedcubing.

You can contact me by e-mail at isin.altinkayaGGGGGGGG@sund.ku.dk, with poly-G tail removed.
