Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteven Pastor is a Bioinformatics Scientist with 11 years of experience blending molecular biology, computational genomics, and biomedical engineering to solve complex sequencing and microbial community problems. He currently applies numerical methods and genome mapping at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and Drexel University to improve de novo assembly, haplotype and structural-variation analysis, and comparative genomics. His background spans hands-on molecular work—vaccine and monoclonal antibody development, real-time PCR, cloning and expression systems—to computational pipelines for community-wide metabolic modeling. Trained with a BS/MS in Biology and Molecular Biology and PhD work in Biomedical Engineering, he bridges wet-lab rigor and algorithmic thinking to translate experimental data into clinically relevant insights. A practical problem-solver, he has repeatedly led end-to-end projects from assay design through data analysis and database curation, making him adept at turning messy biological data into reproducible results.
