Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKyle Fletcher is a computational biologist with a decade of experience building and scaling high-throughput sequencing assays, genome and transcriptome assemblies, and cloud-enabled analysis pipelines. Currently at Elo Life Systems after a productive tenure at UC Davis Genome Center, he developed novel tools for linkage analysis and polyploidy detection and led oomycete genomics projects that produced multiple first- and middle-author publications. Comfortable moving projects from messy metagenomic inputs to robust target assemblies, he pairs wet-lab assay development experience with hands-on pipeline engineering for reproducible, large-scale genomics. Based in Raleigh, NC, he brings a blend of academic rigor (PhD, postdoc) and industry focus, and is notable for translating niche pathogen biology into practical bioinformatics solutions.
