Top SchoolLynn Yi is an MD/PhD candidate and resident physician blending clinical training in neurology, psychiatry, and medicine with over a decade of quantitative research in computational genomics and bioinformatics. Trained through the UCLA-Caltech MSTP and Harvard undergrad, she developed statistical methods for single-cell and multiomic data that led to first-author publications in Nature Methods and Genome Biology and co-authorship in Cell. Her background includes a prior career as a full-stack software engineer and industry experience at 23andMe, giving her rare fluency across software, large genomic datasets, and clinical care. Based in Pasadena, she is driven to translate big-data insights into better diagnostics and therapeutics, supervising trainees and bridging lab, clinic, and code.
