Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDana Wyman is a Senior Bioinformatics Scientist with 11 years of experience developing and applying computational tools to human genomics and transcriptomics. She has deep expertise in long-read sequencing technologies from her PhD work with the ENCODE consortium, where she built methods to characterize human and mouse transcriptomes using PacBio and Oxford Nanopore data. At Helix she has progressed through bioinformatics roles to Senior Bioinformatics Scientist II, translating cutting-edge genomics methods into production analyses. Her background combines rigorous systems biology training (PhD UC Irvine) with practical genomics and database work from Stanford, including regulatory variant scoring and large-cohort analyses. Dana is equally comfortable writing analysis software and interpreting biological signal, and she often bridges research-grade methods into scalable pipelines for population-scale genomics. Based in San Diego, she brings a track record of pushing new sequencing technologies into actionable insights for human genetics.
