Boulder Department University of Colorado
Dr. John L. Rinn is a professor of biochemistry and genomics and a pioneer in the discovery and functional characterization of long non-coding RNAs. His work has helped define how non-coding RNA shapes cell identity, development, and disease.
He is the founder and CEO of LincSwitch, where he is building the first language model for non-coding RNA to decode regulatory RNA logic and cell state. His work bridges genomics, artificial intelligence, and RNA therapeutics, including the development of novel RNA representation and compression methods that transform transcriptomes into images capable of detecting cell identity.
Dr. Rinn is driven by the idea that non-coding RNA represents the missing syntax of the genome—and that understanding this language will unlock a new generation of diagn
