Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNastassia Patin is a marine molecular ecologist and bioinformatician with nine years of experience applying shotgun metagenomics to understand microbiome structure and function across marine environments. Trained in microbiology, chemical ecology, and molecular biology (PhD, Scripps), she integrates short- and long-read sequencing (Illumina, PacBio, Nanopore) with statistical and machine learning methods to produce genome-resolved insights. She coordinates the CalCOFI eDNA program at Scripps/NOAA, translating 'omics data into actionable research design and fisheries management. Her work uniquely bridges hands-on analytical chemistry from her PhD with large-scale computational pipelines developed during postdoctoral positions at Georgia Tech and NOAA. Based in San Diego, she combines field-focused sampling leadership with advanced bioinformatics to advance marine ecosystem monitoring.
