Senior🎓
Top SchoolManuel Corpas is a Senior Lecturer in Genomics, AI, and Data Science with 11 years of experience applying computational genomics to clinical translation and global health equity. He leads the Peruvian Genome Project and develops HEIM, a novel framework to benchmark representation in genomic datasets and AI models, addressing under-representation of non-European populations. As founder of ClawBio, he built the first bioinformatics-native agentic AI platform that enables reproducible, local genomic workflows and has attracted 750+ GitHub stars and rapid community adoption. His career bridges academia, industry, and policy—from designing pharmacogenomics pipelines at Cambridge Precision Medicine to steering national conversations as President of the Spanish Congress of Genomic Medicine. With 80+ peer-reviewed publications, fellowships at the Software Sustainability Institute and the Alan Turing Institute, and a track record of large-scale workshops and hackathons, he combines deep technical skill with community-driven open science. Colleagues know him for turning production-grade clinical informatics insights into practical, equity-centered tools that keep sensitive data local.
