Colm Seale is a postdoctoral researcher and software engineer with a decade of experience bridging bioinformatics, machine learning, and full-stack engineering. He completed a PhD at TU Delft studying CRISPR-driven double-strand break repair, building predictive ML models, transfer-learning approaches, SHAP-based interpretability, and novel pipelines for mutational-spectrum outlier detection. Previously he led engineering initiatives across fintech and SaaS—designing microservices, CI/CD, big-data pipelines, and reactive front-ends—bringing production-grade software practices into research settings. Passionate about improving health and quality of life, he thrives in multicultural, team-oriented environments and mentors students in ML and data visualization. Colm’s unusual blend of hands-on front-end/backend craftsmanship (self-described “Software Butcher”) and rigorous experimental genomics enables him to translate complex biological data into robust, deployable analytics.
