I’m in my wet lab at the Microbial Genomics Laboratory of the Pasteur Institute of Montevideo in Uruguay, which I set up in 2019. Most of my group’s projects start here, but many move into bioinformatics research on the other side of the corridor, or through remote connections to computing systems elsewhere in the world — often at the Wellcome Sanger Institute in Hinxton, UK, where I’m also affiliated.
