Sally Ellingson is a PhD-trained computational scientist with 12 years of experience developing high-performance computing solutions for computational biology and cancer informatics. As Research Faculty at the University of Kentucky she designs and implements scalable pipelines and workflows that leverage HPC systems to accelerate genomics-driven cancer research. Her background includes research appointments at national labs (Lawrence Livermore, Berkeley Lab, Oak Ridge) where she translated computational methods into production-ready science. Comfortable bridging deep computational theory and practical implementation, she brings both academic rigor and hands-on systems engineering to large-scale biological data problems. Based in Lexington, Kentucky, she combines a formal education in genome science and computational science with a strong track record of collaborative, multidisciplinary research.
