Summary
Mike Deberardine is a Research Software Engineer and postdoctoral researcher with nine years of experience at the intersection of computational tools and neuroscience. Currently affiliated with the Princeton Neuroscience Institute and Cornell University, he translates complex genomics and neurobiology questions into reproducible software and data workflows. He holds a PhD in Genetics, Genomics and Development from Cornell and a BS in Biochemistry from Brown, which ground his work in both experimental and computational rigor. Known for bridging lab science and engineering, he focuses on scalable, research-oriented software that accelerates discovery rather than just production deployment. Colleagues value his ability to turn dense biological problems into clear, scriptable pipelines and interoperable tooling. Based in New Jersey, he brings academic depth and practical engineering to collaborative, cross-disciplinary projects.
