Summary
Sandra Hoffberg is a bioinformatics engineer and RADcamp workshop leader with eight years of experience translating wet-lab genomics into robust, user-friendly computational pipelines using bash, Python, R, and Nextflow. She bridges academic research and industry practice, having developed reproducible analysis tools, contributed to peer-reviewed publications, and taught scientists to change lab workflows through hands-on workshops. Her background as an NSF postdoc and PhD in Genetics underpins expertise in population genomics, single-cell methods, and machine learning applied to biological questions. At Code Ocean she built and documented cloud-ready pipelines for pharma and biotech, emphasizing shareability and standards for reproducible science. Sandra is skilled at communicating complex quantitative results to diverse audiences and securing competitive funding to run impactful training programs. Less obvious: she has a track record of creating widely adopted genomic methods and organizing cross-institutional collaborations that turn research innovations into operational lab practices.
