Motahareh's Story In high school, we had coding lessons with C++. At that time it was a fun hobby for me. I developed silly simple games. But, at the University I found out that it has many applications in biology. Living systems show an amazing level of complexity, to an extent that the human mind can not comprehend. For example, human DNA contains 3.2 billion base pairs (units of DNA), and it is impossible to infer meaning from it or find patterns without a computer program. Thus, I became more interested in coding, I self-learned coding with R and data science to be able to understand biology better, and I want to grow my coding skill better.

🙋‍♀️ Motahareh's Motivation

As a biologist, I find myself mostly in two primary roles; one is being a researcher and another is being an educator. As a researcher, I need to present my work in a way that is easy to use for other researchers. For example, I developed a tool that can predict cancer-causing mutations in the DNA, and one of the best ways to present it is via a web page. Also, I want to share my love for biology and living-being as an educator. In the past two years, I taught kids from 6 to 12 biology lessons, mostly zoology. Because of COVID, I had to throw classes online, and I found out how much we can use the internet to educate people and children, in the form of online classes, designing an educational game, or simply making a webpage featuring their writing and paintings. I believe learning to code will help me to advance my career as a scientist, and also share my passion and love for biology with others.

🤹‍♀️ Motahareh's Hobbies

I am an amateur bird watcher, and I like to travel and hike to see birds in their natural habitat and photograph them. Also, I love to sketch and paint.

The Delac Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The Delac Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
