Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrett Engelmann is a Senior Biology Data Scientist with 12 years of experience building infrastructure that makes omics science more discoverable, reproducible, and actionable. Based in Chicago, he leads development and open-source release of OmicNavigator and drove AbbVie’s omic common data model, metadata capture tools, and controlled-vocabulary integration to harmonize archival and retrieval of multi-omic studies. He founded and leads an Integrative Proteomics team that developed high-throughput proteomic and phosphoproteomic assays and guided experimental design, bioinformatic pipelines, and downstream target/MOA discovery for preclinical and clinical-stage assets. His background blends deep wet-lab expertise (LC‑MS/MS proteomics, assay development) with rigorous computational skills (statistical design, batch correction, ontology enrichment, R/Rmarkdown, version control). Notably, he translated postdoctoral phosphoproteomic methods into enterprise-scale platforms adopted across AbbVie and presented at major conferences. He combines scientific curiosity from a PhD in Biochemistry and Biomedical Engineering training with product-minded engineering to deliver reproducible omics tooling and workflows.
