Jon Stocks is a molecular biologist and assay development scientist with nine years’ experience translating cutting-edge genomics and microscopy techniques into robust laboratory assays. He holds a PhD in Genetics from the University of Edinburgh, where his work dissected a protein–RNA mesh that shapes transcription, chromatin architecture and ribonucleotide recycling using NGS, super-resolution imaging and custom data analysis. Now at Divergence Labs after roles in assay development and postdoctoral research, he bridges deep wet-lab expertise with computational analysis to accelerate reproducible discovery. Based in Cambridge, he pairs classical biochemistry training from Oxford with hands-on implementation of high-resolution imaging and sequencing pipelines—often optimizing experiments with bespoke data workflows that aren’t obvious from a typical CV.
