Elisabetta Galatola

Senior Software Developer

 
Elisabetta joined the PaM Informatics team as a Bioinformatics Support Engineer in 2021, to support research activities of the Parasite and Microbes Programme.

About

Elisabetta is a passionate bioinformatician and software developer with a background in Applied Bioinformatics and (Cellular and Molecular) Biology. She supports research activities of the Parasites and Microbes (PaM) programme by troubleshooting bioinformatics issues and developing PaM Informatics tools.

Software Development

Elisabetta started working as a Software Developer within the PaM Informatics team in 2022, contributing to several projects focused on sharing and monitoring genomic data.

Monocle

Monocle is a web application intended for monitoring and sharing genomic data.

  • Monocle Status Monitor – restricted access. Intended for sharing private/unpublished data with collaborators. Collaborators are able to track the status (received/sequenced/pipelines) of their samples and download their data once ready (reads, assemblies, and annotations).
  • Monocle Data Viewer – open access. Intended for sharing public data with the rest of the scientific community. Users are able to download assemblies and annotations by filtering and sorting samples of interest.

 

Tracking system for genomic data

A new internal tracking system is currently being developed to allow managing genomic (meta)data.

A part from being a hands-on developer, Elisabetta covers the role of a Product Owner of this project, and is therefore responsible for gathering requirements from scientific groups, keeping project scopes up-to-date, and managing the backlog.
