Gainesville, Florida, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Bravo is a genetics-focused researcher and bioinformatician with eight years of hands-on experience building and managing genomics pipelines, AWS infrastructure, and data analysis workflows in academic and clinical labs. As a Graduate Research Assistant in Dr. Christina Boucher’s lab at UF, he studies conservation genetics, epigenetics, and the extended host phenotype to probe evolutionary and species-interaction questions. He has a track record of operational leadership—managing whole-genome sequencing pipelines, informatics tools, security and collaborator relationships—alongside scripting and troubleshooting complex analyses. Jonathan pairs wet-lab experience (Illumina sequencing prep) with applied informatics from roles at Myriad, UF Pathology, and a biotech consultancy, and he is pursuing a career that combines advanced education with lab leadership and method development. An unusual strength is his blend of field-driven ecological curiosity (designing 3D-printed artificial eggs during undergrad) with production-grade bioinformatics and cloud governance.
