Summary
👤
SeniorIvan Erill is a full professor of bioinformatics at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, where he leads research on bacterial gene expression regulation using comparative genomics and metagenomics. His work aims to uncover how bacteria survive stress and coordinate virulence and antibiotic resistance, with implications for understanding antimicrobial strategies. Originally trained as a computer scientist, he brings computational rigor to genomics and systems biology and has risen through the ranks at UMBC since 2008. Based in Baltimore, his career spans international training in Spain (PhD from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) and postdoctoral research, reflecting a strong cross-disciplinary trajectory. An unexpected facet of his profile is a background in jazz studies and early experience as a radio presenter, illustrating a broad creative and communicative skill set alongside rigorous science.
