Summary
Jaime Castro-mondragon is a bioinformatician with 12 years of experience building algorithms and reproducible workflows to analyze sequence and multi-omics data across academia and industry. He has led motif database curation and pipeline development for the JASPAR team, co-authored 20+ peer-reviewed papers, and has a strong track record mentoring students and reviewing for top journals. At Nykode Therapeutics he translated sequence features into ML models to explain experimental outcomes and designed RNA‑seq analyses for vaccine-relevant projects, and he now applies that expertise at Akershus universitetssykehus. Trained with a PhD in Bioinformatics and a Master in Systems Biology, he blends deep methodological development with practical pipeline automation and data visualization. Jaime is a fan of reproducible research and automation—his public website and tools reflect a preference for craft both on and off the computer. Based in Oslo, he brings a rare mix of database-scale curation experience and hands-on machine learning applied to protein and regulatory sequence analysis.
