- Comment: Fails WP:PROF unless notability can be demonstrated through reliable, independent sources. Please mention significant contributions to the field and cite them. Potentially promising article, but more cited content is needed. — Stevey7788 (talk) 04:27, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

Vineet Bafna is a Professor of Computer Science and Director of Bioinformatics program at University of California, San Diego.[4][5] He was elected a Fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) in 2019 for outstanding contributions to the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics.[1] He has also been a member of the Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB) conference steering committee. [6]
Career and research
Bafna received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from Pennsylvania State University in 1994 under supervision of Pavel Pevzner, and was a post-doctoral researcher at Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science.[3][7] From 1999 to 2002, he worked at Celera Genomics, ultimately as Director of Informatics Research, where he was part of the team (along with J. Craig Venter and Gene Myers) who assembled and annotated the Human Genome in 2001.[8][9] He was also a member of the team that published the first complete (six-billion-letter) genome of an individual human in 2007.[10]
He joined the faculty at the University of California, San Diego in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering in 2003 where he now serves as Professor and Director of Bioinformatics program.[4][5]
