Genome annotation, RNA biology, software, and scientific photography.
Contract research and consulting in computational genomics, from pipeline development and genome annotation to database architecture, large-scale data management, and scientific imaging.
Genomics & annotation
Gene annotation and analysis
Gene and feature annotation for new and reference genomes, including harmonization across assemblies and annotation sources. Analysis of transcriptome data and isoforms models.
Genomic databases & data management
Architecture for large genomic datasets, metadata management, and integration with genome browser environments including the UCSC Genome Browser and IGV.
Genome browser tracks & visualization
Development of browser-compatible annotation and expression tracks, composite configurations, and display conventions that communicate data provenance and confidence.
Pipeline development
Reproducible, scalable pipelines for sequencing, assembly, annotation, and data dissemination workloads.
RNA biology
Small RNA analysis
Integration and comparative analysis of miRNA and small ncRNA annotations from sources such as miRBase and MirGeneDB, including cross-assembly lift-over and nomenclature harmonization.
RNA structure & modification
RNA secondary structure prediction and RNA modification analysis across long- and short-read sequencing technologies.
Long non-coding RNA
Annotation and analysis of lncRNAs, mRNAs, and other RNA biotypes in genome-scale datasets.
Scientific photography
Laboratory and specimen imaging
Macro photography, photo microscopy, and image processing for publication.
Publication figures
Original photography prepared for journal, book, and grant submission requirements.
Lab & documentation
Visual documentation of methods, equipment, and experimental workflows.
Consultation & advisory
Consortia & large-scale projects
Data generation, analysis, annotation, and dissemination support for large international genomics consortia and multi-institution collaborations.
System programming & performance
Independent guidance on high-performance computing, large-scale software architecture, and systems-level performance for genomics infrastructure.
Technical review
Independent review of methods, code, or experimental approach for groups needing a senior perspective.
