Biography

Jack Colicchio received his PhD at the University of Kansas, looking at the transcriptional and epigenetic responses of monkeyflowers to wounding. He then spent a few years at the University of California, Berkeley, looking at how epigenetic inheritance might impact the capacity of natural populations to persist in the face of climate change. For the past three years he has been working as a Data Scientist at Sound Agriculture, where he has been leveraging Oxford Nanopore sequencing data to develop systems to study epigenetics in plant crop systems.
