Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristopher Trivedi is a Bioinformatics Scientist based in Berlin with over a decade of experience bridging microbial ecology and computational genomics. Since 2022 he has led development and maintenance of production NGS pipelines at LGC Biosearch Technologies, delivering variant, amplicon (ASV-focused) and shotgun metagenomic/metatranscriptomic analyses using Python, R, and Bash. His academic background—PhD in Environmental Engineering and postdoctoral work—centers on microbial life in extreme environments, giving him deep field and wet-lab expertise in DNA/RNA extraction, PCR, and NGS library prep. He combines hands-on sample preservation and logistics knowledge from polar and geothermal fieldwork with practical pipeline engineering for stakeholder-facing results. That rare mix of front-line environmental sampling and operational bioinformatics enables him to translate messy, real-world samples into reproducible, production-ready analyses.
