Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarco Mariotti is an associate professor and computational genomics researcher at the Universitat de Barcelona with 11 years of experience bridging evolutionary, molecular and comparative genomics. He leads work on genomic recoding and comparative analyses, having transitioned from postdoctoral roles at Harvard Medical School and the CRG to a Ramón y Cajal group leader and now faculty position. His background combines a PhD in Biomedicine and a Master in Bioinformatics with hands-on computational biology in high-profile labs, giving him both experimental insight and algorithmic expertise. Known for translating evolutionary questions into genomic-scale analyses, he runs a PI lab that integrates coding-recoding evolution with comparative genomics approaches. An international career path—from Italy to Ireland, Spain and the U.S.—underscores his collaborative network and fluency in multidisciplinary genomics.
