About me
Lisa Crossman is originally a Lab Biologist with a wealth of experience in scientific research and programming. She has a degree in Microbiology from University of Bristol, UK, MSc in Molecular Genetics from the University of Leicester and a PhD in Bacterial Genetics and Molecular Biology from the University of East Anglia, Norwich. She subsequently began to explore the field of Computer biology at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Cambridge, UK. After several years in genomics, she moved back to the Norwich Research Park in Norwich, East Anglia as a consultant, and continued to develop programming skills in Python and R. Over the last two years, a drive to optimize performance and efficiency led her to discover Rust to develop a high-speed workflow. She has now found a fully fledged place for Rust in her research and work. When not working with Rust, Lisa can be found running, cycling or looking after guinea pigs.
