John Logue

I build platforms at the intersection of science, education, and social impact — transforming complex data into tools that make a difference.

About

Science-Driven Development

I'm a bioinformatics specialist and full-stack developer with a neuroscience foundation and a master's in bioinformatics from Temple University. My work bridges evolutionary biology, geospatial analysis, machine learning, and 3D visualization to create platforms that make complex data accessible and actionable.

From analyzing cancer pathways with million-datapoint RNA-seq datasets to building 3D mining adventures powered by real geological data, I specialize in turning intricate scientific problems into intuitive experiences.

I'm currently available for freelance web development, data visualization, bioinformatics consulting, and full-stack projects.
