Senior🎓
Top SchoolDylan Lawless is a bioinformatician and senior translational data scientist with nearly a decade of experience translating large-scale genomics and immunology data into clinically relevant insights. He has led 10+ major projects at EPFL and supervised and mentored students while building robust, reproducible pipelines for WGS, exome, SNV and CNV analyses used in translational and regulatory settings. Currently based in the Zürich area, he splits his time between Kinderspital Zürich and the University of Zurich, contributing to national health initiatives and pediatric genomics pipeline development. His background spans wet-lab immunology, a PhD in genetics, and hands-on analytical roles from clinical assay work to freelance genomic consulting, giving him rare breadth across experiment design, computational analysis, and compliance. Colleagues value his ability to turn complex multi-omics datasets into actionable outputs and to navigate the practical legal and operational constraints of genomic services.
