hi i’m amr. I enjoy designing and making things, scientific research, photography and occasionally art. reach out to design your website, get some pictures taken, collaborate on a genomics paper or work on something else.
who is amr ↗1. A small toothed whale with a rounded head. An animal in its own right; not a baby dolphin.
On porpoise. Like “on purpose”, with a small marine mammal. The name is a pun. The work isn’t.
Etymology. Old French porpois ← Latin porcus ‘pig’ + piscis ‘fish’. Literally, ‘pig-fish’.

Ancient viruses, read out of the genomes they left behind. The papers, and one film.
