Biography

David Yarmosh is a lead bioinformatician in the ATCC Sequencing and Bioinformatics Center. His work with Oxford Nanopore Technologies data began with real-time metagenomic sequencing analysis, researching a method to identify organisms within 24 hours of sampling in a field-forward setting. He built a small toolkit that took advantage of the MinION streaming output to produce taxonomic identification as reads were generated. He has since published broadscale interplatform SARS-COV-2 variant determination and reference-grade hybrid microbial assembly. His interests lie in identifying limitations within data, hardware, and software and finding optimizations that suit the constraints of projects, budgets, and time.
