Senior🎓
Top SchoolChris Miller is an Associate Professor of Oncology and computational biologist with 17 years’ experience developing bioinformatics and data-visualization tools to decode tumor evolution and the genomic origins of cancer. Based at Washington University in St. Louis, he leads a research group and has a track record translating large-scale sequencing into clinical and biological insight, with particular focus on AML and immunotherapy. Trained with a PhD in Computational Biology/Cancer Genomics from Baylor College of Medicine, he blends rigorous statistical genomics with practical pipeline development and team leadership begun during his tenure at The Genome Institute. Beyond publications, he maintains an active academic profile linking methods development to translational questions, often surfacing non-obvious evolutionary patterns in tumor progression that inform therapy response.
