Navigating gene networks, the end

English version
Well, that’s over with. I finished my summer job project at ESAT today. It was a really nice experience, I’ve learned a lot of things and I’ve earned some money, all at the same time. This afternoon, I presented the result of my work of the past four weeks and the end result, this website, to part of the SISTA research team and the professors Bart De Moor and Joos Vandewalle. I’m quite happy with the results actually, and I got a nice compliment of prof. De Moor (for more details, you’ll have to e-mail me ;) ).
Perhaps you’re wondering if I liked staring at a computer screen for four weeks and two days. Well, I have to say, I coped far better than I had exspected. It really motivates that you’re busy working on your own project and can really go for it, to make it as good as possible. Like I said, I’m really glad I learned a lot of things: what research at ESAT or research in general is all about and software like Matlab, Java and Linux. Of course, sometimes you get frustrated when everything just seems to go wrong, but probably that’s just a normal part of research too…
A lot of thanks to the department of electrical engineering, to my ‘mentors’ Leon-Charles Tranchevent and Shi Yu. I hope I helped you somewhat with your research. Anyway, thanks for being there when I needed you. Also a big thank you to my collegues Evelien, Nele, Pierre, Dries, Dieter and Jeroen. Without you guys it wouldn’t have been as much fun as it was.
