Summary
Yulia Mostovoy is a senior data analyst and genomics researcher with nine years of experience applying cutting-edge sequencing, optical genome mapping, and de novo assembly methods to characterize structurally complex regions of the human genome. She earned a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley and completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Pui Kwok’s lab at UCSF, where her work combined structural variant discovery, exome/WGS analysis, and population-scale comparisons. At Massachusetts General Hospital and the Broad Institute she translates deep computational genomics expertise into actionable variant discovery and interpretation for clinical and research settings. Comfortable with Python and R and experienced in integrating diverse genomic datasets, she bridges wet-lab experimental design and advanced computational analysis. An uncommon strength is her track record in tackling segmental duplications and other repeat-rich loci that are typically refractory to standard pipelines.
