About the Author

Tiago Antao

Tiago Antao is a bioinformatician. He is currently studying the genomics of the mosquito Anopheles gambiae, the main vector of malaria. Tiago was originally a computer scientist who crossed over to computational biology with an MSc in bioinformatics from the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto, Portugal. He holds a PhD in the spread of drug resistant malaria from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, UK. Tiago is one of the coauthors of Biopython―a major bioinformatics package―written on Python. He has also developed Lositan, a Jython-based selection detection workbench. In his postdoctoral career, he has worked with human datasets at the University of Cambridge, UK, and with the mosquito whole genome sequence data at the University of Oxford, UK. He is currently working as a Sir Henry Wellcome fellow at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine.
