Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohan Henriksson is an interdisciplinary molecular engineer and Associate Professor with 18 years of experience at the interface of systems biology, bioinformatics and lab software development, focused on advancing CAR T‑cell immunotherapy using high‑throughput multiomics, single‑cell and CRISPR screens. He combines a mechanical engineering background and broad quantitative training with hands‑on molecular biology from postdoc work at EMBL‑EBI/Sanger and group leadership at MIMS to translate complex data into actionable biological insights. As CEO of Labstory and longtime technical lead at startups, he designs integrated ELN/LIMS solutions that bridge wet lab workflows and bioinformatic pipelines, reflecting a rare blend of academic rigor and product-building instincts. Based in Umeå, Sweden, he also consults on data analytics and biotech projects, bringing practical experience in standards, reproducible analysis and cross‑disciplinary collaboration. An uncommon strength is his ability to pivot between deep computational method development and practical lab tooling, making him a connector between bench scientists and data engineers.
