Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlan Shaw is a staff scientist based in Berkeley with eight years of experience translating cutting-edge biophysics and sequencing research into product-ready technologies. He led multidisciplinary efforts at UC Berkeley to invent single-molecule RNA sequencing and combined DNA nanotech with dual-trap optical tweezers for high-resolution kinetics, then moved into industry roles driving integration and data pipelines for high-throughput long-read instruments at PacBio. As an early employee at stealth-mode biotech, he brings hands-on expertise across nanopore and long-read platforms, assay development, and instrument troubleshooting. Trained as a chemist with a PhD from Karolinska and international exchange experience at EPFL, he pairs deep experimental skill with an unusual fluency in bridging academic discovery and commercial sequencing products.
