Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRachel Legendre is a research engineer with 10 years of bioinformatics experience at Institut Pasteur, specializing in integrative analysis of transcriptomic and epigenomic data to dissect gene regulation and chromatin dynamics. She combines multi-omics, rigorous normalization and visualization, and differential/enrichment analyses to map regulatory networks, with a current focus on RNA virus–ligand interactions and cross-viral comparative integration. Her background includes high-resolution ribosome profiling analysis and microRNA detection from earlier roles at I2BC and INRAE, giving her deep expertise in nucleotide-resolution and small RNA workflows. Based in Paris, she bridges method development and applied infectious-disease research, recently extending her profile with doctoral work in infectiology that sharpens her translational perspective. An understated strength is her ability to synthesize heterogeneous experimental protocols into coherent analysis pipelines that reveal shared and virus-specific regulatory patterns.
