Summary
Winston Timp is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University who builds and applies novel sequencing technologies to deepen biological insight and improve clinical diagnostics. Trained as an electrical engineer (BS triple-major; MS/PhD from MIT), he blends biophysics, molecular biology, and computational methods to probe genomes and epigenomes from viruses to redwoods. His lab translates single-molecule and RNA-focused sequencing advances into tools for infectious disease diagnosis, cancer epigenetics, and RNA biology. With more than a decade of faculty experience and a background spanning physics, chemistry, biochemistry and electrical engineering, he brings unusually broad quantitative perspective to experimental biology. An underappreciated strength is his knack for scaling precision measurement concepts from engineering into practical assays for real clinical samples.
