Welcome to my professional site. I’m a bioinformatics specialist with experience in genomics, spatial transcriptomics, and multi-omics analysis applied to aging, cancer, and pulmonary diseases.
Updated on May 23, 2025
I’m Jose Antonio Ovando Ricardez (you can call me Pepe 😊), a Bioinformatics Specialist 🧬 from Tabasco, Mexico 🇲🇽, with over 4 years of experience in human genomics, spatial and single-cell transcriptomics. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Genomics from Juarez Autonomous University of Tabasco 🎓 and I’m about to begin my graduate studies 🎯.
I currently work remotely as a Research Associate at The Ohio State University 🏛️, where I focus on applying bioinformatics to study cancer through multi-omics analysis and spatial transcriptomics 🧬.
In addition to my academic work, I also serve as the Director of Bioinformatics at GenomicsTrack Solutions 🌐, a part-time role in a Mexican startup providing bioinformatics services to laboratories and biotech companies across Latin America 🌎.
So far, I’ve contributed to 8 scientific publications in high-impact journals such as Genome Biology, Cell Reports Methods, Journal of Biological Chemistry (JBC), and Journal of Clinical Investigation (JCI) 📝.
My passion lies in uncovering molecular mechanisms behind cancer, aging, and pulmonary diseases using advanced computational approaches and integrative analysis 🚀.
