Dr. Ashlee Valente Joins Mimetics

Dr. Ashlee Valente is our newest hire at Mimetics. Dr. Valente earned her B.S. and M.S. in Bioinformatics at Rochester Institute in Technology and completed her doctoral studies at Duke University in Computational Biology and Bioinformatics. Ashlee’s doctoral thesis work focused on the development of statistical models to improve computational pre-processing of transcriptomics and proteomics data. During her postdoctoral work, Ashlee worked extensively on applied biomarker discovery. She has extensive experience building predictive models for clinical outcomes in infectious disease and biopolymer exposure in transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics data. Dr. Valente brings with her an enthusiastic pursuit of leveraging this type of data via quantitative systems biology to advance understanding of biological mechanisms.
