About

Two worlds, one person

wet lab

Biologist at the bench.

DNA extraction, library prep and Oxford Nanopore sequencing: I know where the data comes from.

dry lab

Bioinformatician at the terminal.

From raw signal to finished assemblies, with workflows that still run tomorrow.

Both, in one strand.High-quality genomic resources so plant breeders can work faster and better.
