Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJuan Rodríguez is an Assistant Professor and Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow in Copenhagen who applies an 8-year blend of population genetics and computational genomics to map how DNA folding varies between individuals. Trained with a PhD in Biomedicine and a foundation in biomathematics and bioinformatics, he transitioned from studying the evolutionary roots of human ageing to pioneering 3D-genome analysis and integrating GWAS signals with chromatin structure. His work is highly multidisciplinary—he combines evolutionary thinking, structural genomics, and emerging interests in ancient metagenomics to ask unconventional questions about genome function. Known for curiosity-driven research, Juan brings both deep quantitative skills and a knack for translating complex genomic architecture into testable population-level hypotheses. Outside the lab he balances science with creative pursuits—cheese, beers and guitar—reflecting a collaborative, exploratory approach to research.
