Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolErik Enbody is an evolutionary geneticist and bioinformatician with a decade of experience applying big-data genomics to non-model organisms, now an Assistant Professor at Cornell. He has led large-scale projects—building cloud-native pipelines and interactive QC tools—to analyze tens of thousands of whole genomes for conservation and comparative studies. His work spans chromosome-scale assemblies, transcriptomics, and comparative whole-genome analyses published in Science, PNAS, Nature Communications and other top journals. Known for managing interdisciplinary teams across institutions, he combines rigorous computational engineering with field-driven evolutionary questions. Based in Ithaca, he leverages both high-throughput cloud workflows and deep evolutionary insight to turn massive genomic datasets into actionable biological and conservation knowledge.
