Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJosephine Daub is a data-driven bioinformatician and systems biologist with 10+ years of experience decoding genetic interactions across evolutionary and cancer genomics. She combines rigorous statistical method development in R and Python with hands-on pipeline engineering to analyze large NGS datasets and detect selection and interaction signals. Her career spans academia, hospital research, and teaching—most recently lecturing in bioinformatics and data science—so she bridges theory, wet-lab collaboration, and practical student mentorship. She has led interdisciplinary projects at top institutes, translating computational findings into experimental follow-ups in pediatric oncology and evolutionary studies. After a deliberate sabbatical for personal growth, she is recharged and open to new challenges from January 2025. A mathematician by training who began as a software developer, she brings uncommon depth in both algorithmic thinking and real-world software implementation.
