SMuFin2: generating and implementing new and more efficient search engines integrated in particular hardware architectures Mercè Planas-Fèlix, Jordà Polo, Alejandro Barberá-Mourelle, Nicola Cadenelli, David Carrera and David Torrents Mercè Planas Fèlix: I was born in Barcelona in 1988. I received the Bachelors degree in Biology from the “Univeristat Auònoma de Barcelona - UAB”, Barcelona 2012. Then I performed a master in Bioinformatics for Genomics and drug design in UAB,Barcelona 2013. At the same time I was earning my degree, I did a bachelor’s internship and received a grant holder in the Evolutionary group at Genetics and Microbiology department, also I did a Bachelors internship at “Catalan Oncology Institute – ICO” on a Bioinformatics framework. I accomplished the master practices at the Structural Genomics groups led by Marc Marti-Renom at “Centre Nacional d’anàlisi genomic - CNAG”. Since September 2013 I am doing my PhD in Biomedicine (Bioinformatics) at Computational genomics group led by David Torrents at the BSC with a La Caixa fellowship. My thesis is involved in the improvement of SMUFIN generating and implementing new and more efficient search engines integrated in particular hardware architectures. 4th BSC Severo Ochoa Doctoral Symposium 67
