Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSébastien Vigneau is a senior bioinformatics test engineer with 12 years of experience bridging wet-lab genomics and computational biology, currently applying that expertise at Ginkgo Bioworks in Brookline. He previously led the Single-Cell Genomics Lab at Dana-Farber, coordinating multi-team atlases and clinical studies and contributing to high-impact single-cell publications and the Human Tumor Atlas Project. Trained as a developmental biologist with a PhD and a formal bioinformatics certificate, he builds tools and pipelines that translate complex gene expression and epigenomic data into reproducible results—including a Shiny-based monoallelic expression inference app and the MaGIC machine-learning toolkit. Known for piloting new single-cell technologies and defining community best practices, he combines hands-on lab leadership with software-driven rigor to accelerate translational genomics.
