**Developing tools to make complex biological data more accessible – with Sebastian Ayala Ruano**

​Sebastian Ayala Ruano began his studies in Biotechnology Engineering, but soon realized the wet lab wasn’t the right environment for him. With a growing interest in programming, he pursued a minor in Software Engineering and later a Master’s degree that connected both fields.

​Today, Sebastian works in bioinformatics software development, contributing to open-source projects like MicW2Graph, VueGen, and VueCore. These tools help researchers make sense of complex multi-omics data, supporting new ways of understanding biology.

​We plan to cover:

* ​Transitioning from biotechnology to computational work
* ​Building and maintaining open-source bioinformatics tools
* ​The challenges and opportunities of multi-omics data analysis
* ​Advice for life science students interested in programming and bioinformatics

​
​**About the Guest**

​**Sebastian Ayala Ruano** is a bioinformatics software developer whose work bridges biotechnology and computational biology. He has contributed to open-source tools including [MicW2Graph](https://github.com/Multiomics-Analytics-Group/MicW2Graph), [VueGen](https://github.com/Multiomics-Analytics-Group/vuegen), and [VueCore](https://github.com/Multiomics-Analytics-Group/vuecore), designed to simplify multi-omics data analysis for researchers. Previously, he worked on projects in cheminformatics, peptide discovery, and network-based analysis, and has developed educational bioinformatics tools for open science communities.

​Sebastian is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Systems Biology at Maastricht University, where he focuses on integrating machine learning and network science into biological research. He shares his projects and insights through his personal website and GitHub.

​**A hands-on introduction to serving machine learning models in production - Alexey Grigorev**

​This is the third workshop in our ML series on ML model deployment.
​Building on the [FastAPI service created in Part 1](https://docs.google.com/document/d/15ENlteDAkPfGA69ibHYk0hzPh8SO3-v2l13FfmS2sd0/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.9hovmrjzpeli), we’ll now show how to deploy that service using Kubernetes, the industry standard for managing containerized applications in production.
​Led by Alexey Grigorev, this workshop focuses on infrastructure, orchestration, and scaling.

​What You'll Learn

* ​How to containerize a model and preprocessing step as microservices
* ​How to use Docker Compose to test your setup locally
* ​How to deploy your services to Kubernetes
* ​How to connect everything together into a working ML system
* ​The basics of using EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) for managed deployments

​It will be a live demo with practical tips and a chance to ask your questions. This workshop gives you a real feel for how ML models are deployed in real-world environments.
​
​**Thinking About ML Zoomcamp?**
​This workshop reflects the updated content of Module 5 in the [ML Zoomcamp](https://github.com/DataTalksClub/machine-learning-zoomcamp/tree/master), giving you a taste of modern ML deployment practices you'll explore in the course.

​ML Zoomcamp is our free 4-month course that takes you from beginner to advanced ML engineer. It covers the fundamentals of ML, from regression and classification to deployment and deep learning.
​The new cohort of the ML Zoomcamp starts on September 15, 2025. You can join it by [registering here](https://airtable.com/appflP5cuR8bD5MIm/shryxwLd0COOEaqXo).
​
​**About the Speaker**

​**Alexey Grigorev** is the Founder of DataTalks.Club and creator of the Zoomcamp series.
​Alexey is a seasoned software and ML engineer with over 10 years in engineering and 6+ years in machine learning. He has deployed large-scale ML systems at companies like OLX Group and Simplaex, authored several technical books including Machine Learning Bookcamp, and is a Kaggle Master with a 1st place finish in the NIPS'17 Criteo Challenge.

Deploying ML Models with Kubernetes

​**Image Classification with PyTorch: ML Zoomcamp Module Update - Alexey Grigorev**

​This is the fourth workshop in our ML series on ML model deployment and engineering.

​In the ML Zoomcamp course, our Deep Learning module has traditionally focused on TensorFlow and Keras. But PyTorch has rapidly become the dominant framework for deep learning.

​In this workshop, we’ll demonstrate how to implement key concepts, like convolutional neural networks, transfer learning, and training loops, using PyTorch.

​Led by Alexey Grigorev, this hands-on workshop demonstrates how to rewrite a TensorFlow/Keras project into PyTorch and train image classifiers.

​What you’ll learn:

* ​How to set up a deep learning project in PyTorch
* ​How to implement convolutional neural networks (CNNs) from scratch
* ​How to apply transfer learning with pre-trained models like MobileNet
* ​Key differences between TensorFlow/Keras and PyTorch
* ​How to handle data preprocessing and augmentation in PyTorch
* ​How to evaluate, checkpoint, and improve your models

​By the end, you’ll have a working PyTorch training pipeline and an understanding of how it maps to the TensorFlow/Keras version.

​Like the other workshops, this will be a live demo with practical tips and time for Q&A.
​

​**Thinking About ML Zoomcamp?**

​This workshop reflects the updated Deep Learning module (Module 8) in the [ML Zoomcamp](https://github.com/DataTalksClub/machine-learning-zoomcamp/tree/master). You’ll get a preview of how the course now includes both TensorFlow and PyTorch, so you can choose the framework that fits your workflow.

​ML Zoomcamp is our free 4-month course that takes you from beginner to advanced ML engineer. It covers the fundamentals of ML, from regression and classification to deployment and deep learning.

​The new cohort of the ML Zoomcamp starts on September 15, 2025. You can join it by [registering here](https://airtable.com/appflP5cuR8bD5MIm/shryxwLd0COOEaqXo).
