Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAnton Larsson is a computational biologist and data-driven entrepreneur with a decade of experience developing single-cell sequencing methods and computational tools. As a postdoctoral researcher at Karolinska Institutet and co-founder/CTO of Basic Genomics AB, he bridges wet-lab method development with advanced statistical and machine learning pipelines to deliver isoform-level single-cell genomics. His PhD work probed transcriptional bursting and produced software and methods now cited in high-impact journals like Nature Methods and PLOS Computational Biology. Anton has a rare blend of mathematical training and hands-on teaching experience—he built and taught an applied programming course for life scientists—plus board-level startup exposure and frequent involvement in business development.
