Summary
Dimitra Sarantopoulou is a seasoned bioinformatician with 14 years of experience building algorithms and end-to-end pipelines to analyze and integrate large-scale NGS and multi-omics data, from bulk and single-cell RNA-seq to ATAC-seq, DNA methylation and proteomic cytometry. Based in Philadelphia, she translates complex datasets into actionable insights for translational research on aging and immune dysfunction at the National Institute on Aging, after a long bioinformatics tenure at UPenn. She combines strong computational and statistical skills with hands-on software engineering roots—earlier work in multimedia, web and e-learning development informs her emphasis on robust tooling, reproducible pipelines and clear data visualization. An experienced trainer and project manager, she leads interactive classroom and online courses and has collaborated in large consortia on combinatorial personalized medicine. Her profile reflects a rare blend of academic and commercial experience, meticulous attention to detail, and a knack for turning high-dimensional biology into interpretable models.
