Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarina Houben is a research engineer and bioinformatician at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center with 11 years of experience focused on fungal genomics and evolutionary analysis. Her background combines a PhD in Bioinformatics and hands-on postdoctoral work dissecting horizontal gene transfer, hybridization, and genomic duplications in pathogenic fungi, plus leadership in sequencing and genome description projects. Since joining BSC she has broadened into data science, applying statistical and computational methods beyond traditional genomics to extract new insights. Comfortable with phylogenomics pipelines and large-scale comparative analyses, she brings both deep domain expertise and growing fluency in modern data-science toolchains. Notably, her work links evolutionary theory to practical agricultural concerns by characterizing genomes of plant pathogens such as Penicillium species.
