Senior🎓
Top SchoolBasel Abu-jamous is a CTO and computational biology leader with nine years of experience translating multiomic and clinical data into actionable insight for drug discovery and precision medicine. Based in Oxford, he has led and scaled computational teams across academia and industry, notably driving a paradigm shift at Nucleome by linking proprietary genomic evidence to clinical outcomes. As Chief Technology Officer at Pan.bio he builds end-to-end AI-powered genomics platforms that serve governments, hospitals, and research groups while retaining hands-on expertise in bioinformatics, machine learning, and software engineering. His academic contributions include developing the widely used Clust algorithm and discovering a chloroplastic pyruvate exporter during a high-profile Oxford C4 Rice project. He combines scientific rigor with strategy and people development, and actively designs educational programmes to grow bioinformatics capacity in the Middle East. Pragmatic and curious, he blends deep domain knowledge of non-coding genome biology with product-minded engineering to move complex genomic ideas into clinical impact.
