Daniel Schmitz

Hi, I’m Daniel but most people call me Schmytzi!

I’m a bioinformatician based in Uppsala, Sweden, and recently got my PhD! I work with whole-genome sequencing data in large cohorts to find links between genetic variants and complex traits. Before that, I was born and raised around Berlin and got my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Munich.

Find my publications on Google Scholar and ORCiD. You can also download a copy of my CV from GitHub.

When I’m not busy doing research, I am politically active at RFSL Uppsala, where I used to be chairperson. In my free time, I like to play mahjong, pole dance and game.
