Top School

Jelena Telenius is a data scientist with a bioinformatics foundation and 10 years of hands-on experience building robust, extendable web tools, databases, and command-line pipelines. She excels at translating needs between wet-lab scientists, data analysts, and system administrators, acting as the invisible glue that turns complex workflows into easy-to-use tools. Highly polyglot, she programs across R (including Shiny), Python, Perl, SQL, PHP, Bash, JavaScript and legacy languages like Fortran, which helps her maintain and modernize diverse codebases. Trained in biochemistry, computer science and physical chemistry at the University of Helsinki and holding a PhD-level background in applied physics from Aalto, she brings deep domain knowledge to computational solutions. Based in Vantaa, Finland, she favors pragmatic, production-ready designs that prioritize usability for non-technical users while retaining scientific rigor.
