Sixth Annual Young Investigators

Premium

The 'omics community is growing, led by a number of young investigators doing good science. To help find the cream of the crop, Genome Technology turned to established PIs for their thoughts on who is doing interesting and thought-provoking work. All of the researchers profiled here are no more than five years into their first faculty appointment, and some are not even done with their graduate studies. The profiles give a quick glimpse of these investigators' work, representing areas as diverse as single-cell genomics, the role of microRNA in disease, and the uncovering of new biomarkers.
