Jenna Hamlin is an evolutionary geneticist whose interests include comparative genomics, population genetics, sex/asex, speciation, and hybridization for single and multi-cellular organisms. Her work is solely computationally based, but she has spent bench-time narrowing genomic regions of interest in tomatoes. She recently developed a wrapper around the NCBI Datasets Command Line Tools with Mash, downloadable from GitHub.

Currently, she is working as a bioinformatician at CDC, focused on understanding Legionella. You can find links to her associated publications on Google Scholar and a pdf version of her CV located here.

When not working, she's either riding bikes, playing outside, or trying to pet dogs.
