Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHuw Ogilvie is a Senior Data Scientist and computational biologist with 11 years' experience bridging molecular biology, statistics and computer science to drive genomics research from raw sequencing to publication. He has deep hands-on expertise in short- and long-read assembly and mapping, differential expression and gene set enrichment, phylogenetics, linear modeling and Bayesian inference, and has applied these across molecular, evolutionary and cancer biology. Based in Houston and currently at MD Anderson, he previously led research programs at Rice University as an assistant research professor and postdoc, giving him a track record of turning complex experimental data into reproducible analyses and papers. His training in wet-lab molecular biology combined with advanced computational skills lets him uniquely interpret how data are generated and what statistical results mean biologically. Notably, he excels at integrating diverse genomic data types and statistical frameworks to answer evolutionarily and clinically relevant questions.
