Susan Jones is a British computational biologist[1] and bioinformatics group leader[2] at the James Hutton Institute. Her work is specially focused on plant pathogen diagnostics, particularly virus diagnostics, using large datasets of RNA-Seq data. She also works on functional genomics, transcription regulation, protein-protein and protein-nucleic-acid interactions.[2],[3]

Biography

Education

In 1990, she received her Bachelor of Science in Biology[2] from the University of York.[citation needed]

In 1995, she earned her Doctor of Philosophy in Bioinformatics/[2] Biochemistry from University College London.[citation needed]

Career

She began her scientific career as a research fellow at University College London, Cancer Research UK and EMBL-EBI.

She went on to hold bioinformatics lecturer and bioinformatics senior lecturer positions at the University of Sussex.[3]

From 2011 to 2020, Jones was a senior scientist in computational biology at the James Hutton Institute[4] in Dundee, United Kingdom. Since 2020, she is the bioinformatics group leader there.[2]
