Happy 2011!

2010 was a great year for me, in professional terms. Mainly, I achieved two important goals for my career:

  1. In April, I read my thesis, and therefore I got my PhD.
  2. In September, I started a new job as a postdoc at the Computer Science Department in the Royal Holloway, University of London, under the supervission of Dr. Alberto Paccanaro.
On the other hand, I released my first contribution to the free software community, DauroLab, a Java library for doing Large Scale Machine Learning (still not very mature). I plan to improve it monthly during this new year, with clear and concise objectives.

Besides, in my new research group, I started working in bioinformatics. This is a new research area for me, plenty of promising and exciting problems, and though I am still learning a lot the basics of this field of science, I will surely publish some paper on it very soon.

Also, 2010 was a great year for many other reasons. But indeed, the most important one is the people I met during it. Thank you everybody for your support, for your trust, and for being there in the not-so-good moments.
