Summary
Hadi Quesneville is a senior genomics and bioinformatics leader with a PhD in population genetics and over two decades of experience creating methods and platforms to annotate and explore genomes through multi-omics integration. At INRAE he combines strategic roles—Deputy Director for Open Science and Chief Data Officer—with hands-on research leadership as Research Director, driving FAIR data, open science, and national plant bioinformatics infrastructure. He led development of widely used tools and resources such as REPET, GnpIS, S-MART and MAPHiTS, reflecting deep expertise in transposable element biology, NGS pipelines and information systems. Known for bridging academic research and operational data governance, he has steered international initiatives on wheat genomics and coordinated cross-disciplinary teams to make complex genomic data accessible and reusable. An uncommon strength is his ability to translate low-level algorithmic work into large-scale, sustainable platforms that serve both researchers and national research infrastructures.
