Sergey Koren a software engineer at the J. Craig Venter Institute, is a Ph.D. student at the University of Maryland, College Park, where he received his Master of Science andBachelor of Science (cum laude, with honors) degrees in Computer Science. His research interests include genome assembly, application of graph analysis to metagenomics, and applications of high-performance computing. He is a contributor to the Celera Assembler, AMOS, and k-mer Tools projects hosted on Source Forge.
Granger Sutton is Senior Director of Informatics at the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI). Prior to joining JCVI, Dr. Sutton was a director in the Informatics Research department at Celera Genomics where he developed and managed research programs ingene finding, comparative genomics, and shotgun fragment assembly including the development of the Celera Assembler for assembling the human genome. As Computer Scientist at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR), he developed protein homology search, multiple sequence alignment, and shotgun fragment assembly algorithms. Dr.Sutton also worked at AT&T Bell Labs to design and implement office automation software. Dr. Sutton earned his Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering and Doctoratein Computer Science from University of Maryland, College Park, and a Master’s degreein Computer Engineering from Stanford University.
