Senior🎓
Top SchoolAmin Mahpour is a Senior Scientist and computational biologist in Boston with 11 years of experience applying computational and biochemical methods to decode gene regulation and RNA biology. He has driven projects spanning long-read transcriptomics, protein–RNA interaction mapping, engineered chromatin profiling enzymes, and discovery of novel lncRNAs and circular RNAs during research roles at Harvard Medical School/Mass General and now Alkermes. His PhD work uncovered a novel genetic element in CpG islands that modulates gene expression, reflecting a blend of wet-lab insight and algorithmic pipeline development. Comfortable moving between bench and code, he builds reproducible computational pipelines to translate complex genomics data into actionable biological hypotheses.
