About John Brothers

Senior Bioinformatician with expertise in data analysis, visualization, and transcriptomics/RNA-seq pipeline development. Skilled in guiding scientists through every stage of analysis—from experimental study design and data processing to result documentation, code packaging, and interactive visualizations in web applications and reproducible reports. A highly approachable and effective communicator adept at collaborating in cross-functional teams with the ability to translate problems between clinicians, experimentalists, bioinformaticians, and other key stakeholders. Proficient in data wrangling, analysis, and visualization using R and Shiny, with some recent experience in Python and Panel. Strong background in Bash and Nextflow for programming and pipeline development. Thorough understanding of the challenges involved in and the tools needed for microarray, ChIP/RIP, and RNA sequencing data analysis including the importance of clear and accessible data visualizations, annotations, reports, and presentations. Presented at national clinical (ATS 2010, 2011, 2012) and genomics (AGBT 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016) conferences as well as international bioinformatics conferences (IBSB 2010, 2011).
