About Björn Andersson
Current position at GU
Statistician at Bioinformatics Core Facility at the Sahlgrenska Academy, where we provide researchers with statistical and bioinformatics consultation, data analysis and training.
Previous positions and experience
Started in the lab with sequencing and looking at SNPs, moved on to microarray and proteomic studies doing bioinformatics and ended up in front of the computer a statistician/R programmer, working with data mining and statistical modeling.
Phd/post-doc in medicin, with the focus on identifying biomarkers in the the field of longitudinal growth and growth hormone treatment.
