Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEva Novoa is an ICREA Research Professor and group leader at the Centre for Genomic Regulation with 11 years of experience at the intersection of RNA biology, nanopore sequencing and algorithm development. Her lab pioneers nanopore-based methods and deep learning tools to map RNA modifications and single-molecule structure, applying these innovations to questions from sperm maturation and specialized ribosomes to viral epitranscriptomics. Trained in biochemistry and bioinformatics (PhD, Universitat de Barcelona; MSc, UPF), she blends computational method development with wet-lab experimentation, having led projects from in silico drug design to synthetic biology and machine learning at institutes including MIT, Broad, and Garvan. Notably, her work connects codon usage, tRNA evolution and translation tuning to disease and intergenerational inheritance, revealing functional links between ribosome composition and selective translation.
