Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoey Arthur is a Staff Computational Biologist with a PhD in Statistics and 11 years of experience applying quantitative methods to single-cell and spatial transcriptomics. At 10x Genomics he led computational R&D for a high-resolution spatial platform, authored 300+ pull requests across Python and Rust codebases, and drove technical diligence for an eight-figure asset acquisition. He bridges assay development, sequencing data analysis, and customer-facing software, contributing algorithmic work on batch effects, sensitivity analysis, and sparse matrix normalization. Joey also mentors PhD interns, built reproducible R package builds and curated reference genome annotations used company-wide, showing a rare mix of deep statistical modeling and production engineering. Based in Oakland, he combines academic rigor from Stanford with hands-on product delivery, often translating complex experimental designs into deployable bioinformatics pipelines.
