About

To make it short. I am an identical twin, chemist and geek having a sound character. I am married.

Since 2005 I am working as scientist in antiviral drug design being part of the in silico taskforce.

My work

I studied chemistry followed by my Ph.D. thesis in computer science. In other words I am a Cheminformatician by education, because in 2001 there were not many universities offering this subject as a major.

Fields that spark my interests are drug design, antivirals, cheminformatics, chemogenomics, molecular modelling, QSAR (especially ADME and molecule mining), coding of molecules, information theory and optimization algorithms. Besides, I am the administrator of the JOELib-Cheminformatics-library.

I am one of the co-founders of a cheminformatics open source community called the 'blue obelisk' movement, because some of the administrators/developers met at the blue obelisk. It was founded 2005 at the ACS meeting in San Diego, where I had two talks.

Since October 2005 I am working as post-doc at Tibotec in Mechelen. My work is now focused on molecular modelling and Cheminformatics.

My actual drug target working on is one of the HIV targets.
