Computational Biologist
Designed and deployed scalable data pipelines in Python, R and Snakemake integrating genomic, transcriptomic, and phenotypic data across 2,000+ clinical isolates.
Co-developed an open-source bacterial Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS) platform deployed on HPC and AWS and adopted by external research groups.
Performed phylogenetic reconstruction and bacterial GWAS across 430+ commensal Escherichia coli, identifying genetic variants associated with suppression of multidrug-resistant strains.
Identified transcriptional mechanisms underlying bacterial killing and biofilm inhibition in Pseudomonas aeruginosa via RNA-seq analysis, informing antimicrobial peptide discovery.
Validated computational predictions through reporter assays and expression profiling, confirming cis-regulatory variant effects on gene expression and resistance phenotypes.
Delivered analytical reports and visualisations to senior researchers, supporting strategic project decisions.
Mentored graduate students in reproducible bioinformatics.
