Summary
Narendra Kumar is a computational biologist and scientist with a decade of experience at the intersection of genomics, epigenetics and structural biology, currently working at the National Institute of Immunology in New Delhi. He has blended academic research—from PhD work on protein-peptide modeling to postdoctoral projects on chromatin epigenetics—with industry roles delivering bioinformatics products and cloud-based NGS pipelines for academia and biotech. His background includes developing webservers and predictive tools (e.g., EFICAz2.5) and building reproducible ChIP-seq and RNA-seq workflows that bridge experimental labs and data-driven discovery. At Dr. Reddy’s he translated multi-omics and market data into portfolio strategies, demonstrating rare fluency in both technical method development and business-facing analytics. Known for setting up computational infrastructure end-to-end, he mentors students and collaborators to turn complex genomic datasets into testable biological hypotheses.
