[PSF-Community] Introductions

Hello there,

This is Brian Jimenez, from Barcelona, Spain. It is nice to read about 
all of you and I'm glad to be subscribed to this list.
I am a software engineer enrolled in a scientific PhD (bioinformatics, 
mainly protein simulations). I've been using Python since 2005 when I 
started developing in Zope/Plone. Currently I'd like to consider myself 
a Pythonista. I'm a user of several numeric and scientific libraries 
such as numpy, scipy, biopython and many others and I'm really 
interested in building quality into scientific software, which I've 
found many times lacking enough testing, robustness or reproducibility.

Thank you all for your time and effort.

Best wishes,
Brian
