Featuring John Bagnoli, Senior Manager, Bioinformatics
Guest:
John Bagnoli, BS
Senior Manager, Bioinformatics, ATCC
John Bagnoli is a Senior Manager for Bioinformatics in the Sequencing and Bioinformatics Center (SBC) at ATCC. Prior to joining ATCC, he held positions at QIAGEN and MRIGlobal where he gained extensive experience in robotics, laboratory automation, oligonucleotide manufacturing, and bioinformatics. Mr. Bagnoli has a Bachelor of Science in Biochemical Pharmacology from the University at Buffalo.
Show Notes:
In the final episode of season one of ATCC’s podcast, John Bagnoli peers into the future of bioinformatics and describes the challenges that are likely to appear along the way. He’ll explore important questions such as: Will bench scientists become the bioinformaticians as the bioinformaticians transition into software development? Will machine learning and robotics replace humans in the laboratory all together? Listen in, to hear John’s surprising answers.
Host:
David Yarmosh, MS
Lead Bioinformatician, ATCC
David Yarmosh is a lead bioinformatician in ATCC’s Sequencing and Bioinformatics Center. He’s a graduate of New York University’s Tandon School of Engineering. He has been working in large data aggregation and analysis since 2013 and microbial genomics with a focus on biosurveillance R&D efforts since 2016. David has led international training exercises in Peru and Senegal, sharing metagenomic analytical capabilities. His interests include genomics database construction, metadata collection, drug resistance mechanisms, bioinformatics standards, and machine learning. Since joining ATCC in 2020, David has worked extensively in SARS-CoV-2 classification, epidemiology, and genomics evaluation, including enhanced and uniform variant reporting. He has contributed more broadly to genomics reporting and analytical standardization and he has helped develop the podcast Behind the Biology, which he now hosts.
ATCC Genome Portal
Reference-quality Genomes
ATCC is not only enriching the characterization of our biological collections by using next-generation sequencing, we are also making those data available to everyone through the ATCC Genome Portal.
ATCC Genome Portal
The ATCC Genome Portal makes it easy to find the high-quality whole-genome sequencing data needed for your research. You can easily search, download, and analyze thousands of reference-quality genomes for our microbial strains.
