Summary
Justin Jeyakani is a Senior Bioinformatics Specialist based in Singapore with over 25 years in computational biology and a decade of hands-on genomics experience driving production-grade NGS analytics. At A*STAR Genome Institute he architects and operates scalable genome analysis workflows across HPC, national supercomputing resources and AWS to support national precision-medicine programmes and external collaborators. He combines deep domain knowledge in genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics and protein structure/drug discovery with practical skills in Linux, Python, R and workflow engineering. Equally comfortable with wet-lab techniques—from protein expression to tissue culture—he bridges experimental and computational teams to accelerate translational research. Notably, he’s experienced across the full spectrum of sequencing platforms (Illumina, PacBio, Oxford Nanopore, 10x) and has helped formalize genomics standards and production pipelines used institute-wide.
