Melissa Pentony
Bioinformatician
Work summary
I am a bioinformatician, working at Oxford BRC since May 2014. My current work involves analysis of high-throughput next-generation sequence data.
Prior to this I was an NGS analyst at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and a post-doc at New York University, working on adaptive evolution of plant proteins and how they map to protein structures.
