Hi, I'm Eduardo. I'm a scientist and Assistant Professor of Computational Biology at MBZUAI, in Abu Dhabi. My research website is https://beltrame.mbzuai.ac.ae. I work primarily with single cell RNA sequencing data.
I did my PhD at Caltech (thesis PDF, defense).
Here are my CV, GitHub. LinkedIn and publications.
. Here's my life story.

I was previously bioinformatics lead at ImYoo, a biotechnology startup created by Caltech friends to execute decentralized immune studies using single cell omics. Before ImYoo, I was founding scientist at Retro Biosciences, a biotechnology startup developing ageing-related therapeutics. I am also a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley School of Education, working on a research partnership with innovative STEM education programs in Brazil with the Vilson Groh Institute in Florianópolis, my hometown. Here is an article I wrote about them in 2021 more details.

3D Printing

Using UCSF Chimera to 3D print proteins.
Note: ChimeraX is out and offers a much better experience.

Website menagerie

I like making websites on a whim.
Here's a selection of the best ones, which will live forever on Netlify

derp.news - real headlines, fake news!
xenocracy.org - a sustainable alternative to democracy
Caltech Biosciences happy hour - we got 3 sponsors with this site!
Sovereignty club original landing page - started as a joke, remains one
gCALtech - daily emails with Caltech events
Soylent with students - see for yourself
Protein Bender - honestly I made it just for the logo
Decentralization Club - we never did much, other than entering the matrix
ChatBread - the future of chat?
Dylan 2020 - almost got Dylan to run for congress with this one
