Amulya Baral is a PhD student at NMBU, Norway working on antimicrobial resistance using large-scale metagenomics.

He’s doing it because:

1. Bacteria are cool but antimicrobial resistance sucks for us humans.
2. Computers are cool and can process large amounts of data quickly but need proper instructions.

For his papers, visit his google scholar page or ORCID. His personal email is amulyabaral2@gmail.com.

He has worked on:

• panres2 AMR gene database ontology browser
• nomoreamr.org, a knowledge base for AMR and AMU surveillance systems in the nordics
• swiftomics.com, an open source, no-code pathogen profiling platform that runs everything client-side using WASM

You can see he really enjoys this kind of stuff. Sometimes he also likes to run marathons, go bikepacking, and brew light roasts.
