Damon Polioudakis is a computational biologist with a decade of experience applying multi-omic and single-cell analytics to decipher neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disease mechanisms, now serving as Senior Scientist II, Computational Biology at Prime Medicine in New York. He led the construction of a neocortical cell atlas and has a strong track record integrating internal and public -omics datasets to implicate cell-type specific dysregulation in disorders such as Alzheimer’s and FTD. Damon combines deep wet-lab training (PhD in Molecular Biology) with advanced bioinformatics, having developed web interfaces for data sharing and reproducible analysis pipelines. He moves between discovery and translational settings—academic postdocs to biotech—bringing practical experience turning complex single-cell data into target hypotheses for therapeutic programs. An understated strength is his consistent focus on making large, noisy datasets interoperable and accessible to multidisciplinary teams.
