Summary
Chen Jinmiao is a Principal Investigator and computational immunology leader based in Singapore with a PhD in computer engineering and over a decade of experience translating high-throughput biological data into new biological insights. She founded and leads the SCCI lab at A*STAR, where she develops novel algorithms and tools—such as cytofkit, flowAI, DensVM and ClusterX—for integrated analysis of mass cytometry and single-cell RNA-seq data. Her work bridges method development and collaborative, large-scale data analysis for clinicians and biologists, addressing challenges in cell subset identification, lineage inference and rare cell discovery. Known for turning cutting-edge single-cell technologies into practical pipelines, she combines deep machine learning expertise with hands-on bioinformatics service and translational research. An interesting detail: many of her lab’s tools automate tasks from quality control to pre-gating, reflecting a persistent focus on reproducible, scalable single-cell workflows.
