Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSean Kearney is a molecular biologist and bioengineer with nine years of hands-on experience translating microbial systems biology into applied solutions for agriculture and human health. He holds a PhD in Biological Engineering from MIT and has led genome engineering platforms and high-throughput -omics analyses to dissect microbial interactions across environments from the ocean to the gut. Sean has driven commercialization pathways for engineered microbes and now engineers beneficial fungi and bacteria as sustainable crop protection alternatives, combining experimental design, NGS analytics, and statistics. Comfortable leading collaborative, independent research projects, he has a track record of high-tier publications and cross-institution partnerships. A less obvious strength is his repeated ability to bridge fundamental ecology (e.g., cyanobacteria-virus interactions) with practical bioengineering workflows that accelerate product development.
