Summary
Kimberly Robasky is a technology director and research leader with two decades of experience building cross-disciplinary teams, AI-enabled data platforms, and translational science programs that move bioscience from lab to practice. She has independently secured seven-figure funding to launch institutional initiatives, participated in multi-institution NIH proposals exceeding $1B, and led creation of 100+ software repositories, 60+ datasets and over a million lines of code supporting reproducible science. Equally at home in academia and industry, she co-founded a cancer multiomics startup while serving as associate researcher and core faculty, melding product strategy, 3D ex vivo modeling and generative-AI approaches. Her work blends hands-on engineering—designing ML-ready warehouses, CI/CD and xAI methods—with mentorship of PhD-level scientists, and she has presented at high-profile international fora from the UN to ESACT. Not obvious from titles alone: she pairs software-scale discipline with deep bioinformatics training (PhD) to translate complex biological data into operational, fundable programs.
