Morten C. Eike

  • Senior engineer; PhD, MA

Morten C. Eike has a diverse background, with a PhD in human genetics and an MA in interdisciplinary studies. He has taken a special interest in the use of high-throughput DNA sequencing methods in a clinical setting. This has resulted in a key role in the development of the open source software tool ELLA, which is also his current main focus.
