Alvaro Pacheco Concha — HTGAA Spring 2026

About me
I am a student researcher focused on peptide design and experimental validation, with strong interests in bioinformatics and computational biology. My work centers on the AI-assisted design of inhibitory peptides, followed by in vitro and in vivo experimental testing, combining computational approaches with molecular biology and biochemical validation.
I actively participate in scientific outreach initiatives and the organization of academic events, and I am involved in communities focused on omics sciences, bioinformatics, and science education. My goal is to develop computationally guided biomolecular tools with real experimental impact in biomedicine, microbiology, and biotechnology.
