Hello, this is Carlos Fenollosa. |
Who am I?
I'm a researcher at the Spanish National Bioinformatics Institute, a computer engineer with a MSc in artificial intelligence. This page contains a small map of my Internet-related interests. To learn more, you can read my blog entries (in Spanish) or my bio, also in Spanish. In my linkedIn profile you can find more information about me and my résumé.
You can contact me by e-mail; unfortunately I'm working full-time and don't have much free time, but I always answer all mails.
Right now I have a job at a bioinformatics research group. In my free time —to name it somehow— I have many personal projects, like the three podcasts that you can see below.
Regarding work, my main interest is the research and applications of the AI. If you, who are reading this, are a recruiter for Google or Yahoo, please contact me ASAP! I'd love to work on either of these companies. Besides AI, my other hobbies are the analysis of the Internet and journalism, of which you can find more information in my blog.
What is this page?
This page is my window on the Internet. It contains links to, basically, my writings, podcasts and photos, but it is also a hub with information about myself and the places I visit. One could say that I created this page to lead here to anybody who's looking for me. Keep in mind that this is the first version of the page, and can —will— be modified in the future.
To enter any section, click on its title or on the image below it. Keep in mind that all content is in Spanish language.
My blog — Punto y aparte
In my blog I write about free software, the Web and Internet rights. I post regularly and it's the foundation of my web site. I also contribute in another blog with three friends, the Spanish Primos, but don't take seriously anything you read there.
Subscribe to the blog RSS feedDame la voz / Dóna'm la veu
«Dame la voz» and «Dóna'm la veu» are two weekly debate podcasts. We record them in a semi-professional style, where a group of young people analyzes the main news from an independent point of view. These two projects aim to, on one hand, extend the use of podcasting as a mainstream media and, on the other hand, fill an opinion gap on the news, who completely ignore young people and minimize them to four pages on the friday section.
Dame la voz is recorded in Spanish and its main topics cover the global news, while Dóna'm la veu is produced in Catalan, and analyzes the local events. Both are released on a weekly basis, every sunday morning.
My podcast — El amuleto de Yendor
I've released a new podcast, El amuleto de Yendor, with Nacho Lasheras. Its contents are very similar to the previous one, but this one is more entertaining, as it's recorded with two voices. You can find the historical archives of el podcast de Punto y aparte on blip.tv, a specialized site for podcasts and video blogs.
My photos
I've got a flickr account with my holidays pictures and many others.
Social network
A social network is no more than the use of the Web as a connection between people with the same interests. I use different public and open services to learn more about my interests. You can start by having a look on my blog's and flickr's links, and then:
- To get an idea of the music I like: last.fm
- An incomplete list of the movies I've watched and my rating: imdb
- The bookmarks I use to work: del.icio.us
- Who's talking about me, on technorati
- My linkedIn profile: Carlos Fenollosa
- Some of the videos and the slides I've made.
As a curiosity, I chose Topopardo as my nickname because I knew I'll be the only one with that nick on the Internet—it worked! If you want to track me, just look for Topopardo
Research
I'm currently working at the Spanish National Bioinformatics Institute, at the MMB group. I finished there my Masters Thesis, titled «Using AI techniques to determine promoter location based on DNA structure calculations». At that address you can find my Thesis and the presentation in the Flash format. If you experience any problems to view it, just open the Thesis.keynote.html file on that folder.

Neither I am a web designer nor I like working with web pages, it's one of the most boring jobs ever, even if most computer engineers end up working as web developers.
