Raony Guimarães

Senior Bioinformatician at M42 · Emirati Genome Programme · Abu Dhabi

I build the bioinformatics that turns a nation's genomes into clinical answers: population-scale whole-genome sequencing, Nextflow pipelines on Kubernetes, rare-disease and population genomics.

PhD in Bioinformatics (UFMG, Brazil). Previously in Dublin, Belo Horizonte, Ribeirão Preto and the Netherlands.

Projects

Project What it is
Mendel,MD Open-source web tool for annotating, filtering and diagnosing exomes and genomes from patients with Mendelian disorders. Live at mendelmd.org.
Pynnotator VEP-centric VCF annotation framework for exomes and genomes.
bioinformatics-mcp MCP server with 62 tools connecting AI agents to scanpy, Biopython, squidpy, NCBI, UniProt, Ensembl and PubMed.
vus-meta-predictor Missense pathogenicity prediction combining ESM-2 embeddings, physicochemistry and gene constraint.
fast-ngs-admix Nextflow pipeline for ancestry and admixture estimation from 23andMe files.
