The diversity, origin and evolution of wild and landrace varieties of M.esculenta from RADSeq data

Senior AI/ML and genomics practitioner with ~15 years building open-source, production-grade tools for large-scale biological data. Maintainer of multiple Bioconductor packages (fastreeR, metabinR, jvecfor), and author of agentic, LLM-driven tooling that runs reproducible bioinformatics workflows from natural-language requests.

Broad multi-omics background spanning genome assembly and annotation, population genomics, large-scale NGS and functional-genomics analysis, and metagenomics, backed by reproducible HPC software and end-to-end program leadership. Currently focused on bringing modern AI — embeddings, deep learning, and LLM-based agents — to making complex omics datasets faster and easier to interrogate.
