Alistair graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2000 with a Masters in Natural Sciences. After working for the UK government for a few years, Alistair received his PhD in Physics from Boston College. A lifelong interest in genetics spurred a move into bioinformatics, pursuing postdoctoral work in the lab of Professor Gabor Marth, where he
worked on large consortium projects including the 1000 Genomes Project. After becoming a research assistant professor, Alistair became a Director of Research and Science at the University of Utah. Alistair is interested in understanding how to extract useful information from complex genomic data, and make it accessible to those without extensive computational experience. In 2005, Alistair co-founded Frameshift with Professor Gabor Marth and Dr. Chase Miller.
