Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNam Vo is a bioinformatics leader and entrepreneur with 12 years of experience building large-scale biomedical data platforms and analytic methods, now co-founding and serving as CTO and Chief Scientist of GeneStory in Hà Nội. He blends hands-on systems programming (C/C++, Go, Python) in Linux environments with domain expertise in genomics, proteomics, pharmacogenomics and population-scale projects like the 1000 Vietnamese Genomes. Nam has led national efforts in data harmonization, genome reference and genetic-chip design, and translated research from MD Anderson and University of Chicago into production workflows for variant calling, HLA typing and neoantigen prediction. He is equally comfortable inventing novel algorithms—several implemented as open-source tools during his PhD and postdoc—and steering product development and strategic partnerships to bring preventive genetics into clinical practice. An uncommon strength is his ability to span low-level algorithmic innovation and high-level platform architecture, enabling both research breakthroughs and deployable healthcare solutions.
