Biography
Madiha did her BS (Hons) in Bioinformatics, MS in Computational Evolutionary Biology, and PhD research work in Computational Genomics from Pakistan in which she developed a tool to optimize denovo supertranscriptome assemblies using RNA-seq data.
During her PhD, she also was a visiting research scholar at Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at UoM, Ann Arbor, USA, where she worked as a bioinformatician to develop a method to fix paralogs-related assembly errors.
In June 2023, Madiha joined Dr. Capon’s Skin Inflammatory Genetics Group at King’s College London as a Research Assistant in Bioinformatics. In her current role, she explores transcriptomic data to identify cellular networks underlying severe multisystem atopic diseases.
