About

Proch.

print (“Hello world!“);

I’m Andrea Telatin, an Italian 25 years old student of Molecular Biology at the University of Padua, where I currently live.

At the moment I ‘m carrying on my master project to get the degree. It focuses on a genomic approach to decipher high pressure adaptation of a nice piezophilic bacterium called Photobacterium profundum. I play with microarrays and other nice stuff at the CRIBI Biotechnology Center (I made this site, by the way , where I have a small home (http://genomics.cribi.unipd.it/~telatin/).

During my High School years I developed a passion for web design and programming , and still try to make something good at this in my spare time. I’m trying to get updated on XML, Ajax and many stuff I missed studying Biology… but it will take a long while. I know some perl, PHP and a little Object Pascal. I definitely would like to learn C++ and start playing seriously.

I write articles about Windows Vista for the Italian group HTML.it in the OneVista.it blog, specializing in security related topic.

I’m also a passionate boy scout: I have been Akela for three years, now I’m assistant Scout Leader in a nice Troop near Padua. My association, the CNGEI, was the first established in Italy. My scout name is Sage Racoon, hence the nick “Proch”, that is a truncated form of the Italian “procione”.
I have some web-related project for my Scout District, hope I’ll able to share it whithin a few months. Stay tuned.

Think I said enough for now. Cheers!
