Erica Marie Rutherford
Data Wrangler, Biomedical Data Science
BioMy career spanning nine years as a data curator has given me a lot of experience and perspective into the workings of scientific data and metadata, and its organization. During my time before graduate school, I attained experience on a variety of fieldwork projects in ecology (2008-2013). During these temporary seasonal assignments, the importance of precision and care in data collection was impressed in me. When I went to graduate school at San Francisco State University (2013-2016), I gained experience in all parts of a molecular biology experiment, from fieldwork to labwork to data analysis. After graduation, I worked at a microbiome focused startup company, Second Genome, as their data curator (2016-2021). While there, I was responsible for curation of metadata for both internal studies for R&D and for clients, and for external studies being brought in for our internal Knowledgebase. While there, I developed an appreciate for ontologies, and developed a custom Second Genome Ontology to handle our metadata. I moved on to the Lattice group, located at Stanford University, where I continued to expand my skills in data curation (2021-present). I have gained experience in handling single cell datasets and their associated metadata, and curating them to meet precise standards. I strive to work collaboratively with data contributors in order to ensure FAIR data standards.

Charles William Ryan
Affiliate, Department Funds
Resident in SurgeryBioI was born and raised in Syracuse, New York. I first attended Onondaga Community College, where I developed a fascination with the development of complex biological systems, and then transferred to Syracuse University where I completed my B.S. in biochemistry. I next attended the University of Michigan MD/PhD program, where I used in-vitro models of human neurodevelopment to study to role of epigenetic marks in guiding neurogenesis. While at Michigan, I became interested in the prospect of harnessing in-vitro differentiation to cultivate functional tissues that can be transplanted to replace what is lost in degenerative conditions. Ophthalmology, with its microsurgical access to functionally critical cell layers, is well-positioned to capitalize on this emerging field of science to treat degenerative conditions. I am humbled and incredibly thankful to have the opportunity to pursue this aim as a SOAR resident at Stanford.
