Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Hoover is a computational biologist and seasoned systems administrator based in Bethesda, Maryland, with over a decade managing large Linux clusters and 20+ years of hands-on experience in structural and synthetic biology. At the National Institutes of Health he blends system administration, application development, and user support to enable cross-disciplinary research workflows and scientific software deployment. His background in protein crystallography, expression, and gene synthesis from the National Cancer Institute complements his computational expertise, allowing him to bridge wet lab and informatics teams effectively. A PhD-trained biochemist with a strong academic record from University of Michigan and UIUC, he is as comfortable teaching technical courses as he is configuring complex research infrastructure. Notably, he pairs deep domain knowledge with practical tooling experience to keep large-scale scientific computing environments reproducible and reliable.
