Daryl Gohl, Ph.D., is head of the University of Minnesota Genomics Center’s Innovation Lab and is a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Genetics, Cell biology, and Development at the University of Minnesota. After obtaining a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from Princeton University, he went onto complete postdoctoral studies at Stanford University in the Department of Neurobiology, where he began his work on next-generation sequencing methods. Daryl’s work has improved the accuracy and resolution of next-generation sequencing, while expanding scope and scale of measurements. His years of research have contributed to the development of amplicon-based microbiome profiling methods and a novel shallow shotgun sequencing approach. These improvements in next-generation sequencing enable dense sampling and increased power, resolution, and through-put in large-scale microbiome studies. In 2017 Daryl, along with Drs. Kenny Beckman and Dan Knights from the University of Minnesota Genomics Center founded CoreBiome, now Diversigen, a microbiome analysis company bringing together cutting-edge machine learning and genomics.
