Summary
Marco Fracassetti is a bioinformatician and researcher based in Stockholm with 12 years of experience applying population genomics, evolutionary ecology, and high-throughput sequencing to questions in plant adaptation and mating-system evolution. He holds a PhD in Ecology and Genomics and has led NGS-based genome assembly, annotation, GWAS, and transcriptomic projects across Arabidopsis, Brassicaceae, Linum and crop systems. At Stockholm University he currently studies the evolution of a distyly supergene, combining hands-on lab insight with advanced computational pipelines to bridge genotype, phenotype and ecology. His background ranges from field-based plant breeding and physiological assays to statistical population-genomic inference, giving him uncommon fluency translating biological questions into robust bioinformatic analyses.
