作者简介：Dr. Kai Ye is anassistant professor in the McDonnell Genome Institute at Washington Universityin St. Louis. After completing his PhD at Leiden University, the Netherlands, he wentto European Bioinformatics Institute for one year postdoc, where he developedthe first split-read algorithm,Pindel, to detect insertions and deletions aswell as structural variants from next-generation sequence data. He was theninvited to join 1000 Genomes Project and chair the structural variant group ofthe Genome of the Netherlands (GoNL). In 2012, he jointed the McDonnell GenomeInstitute and worked on the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and the InternationalCancer Genome Consortium (ICGC).
