Magali Soumillon

Co-Founder and CEO  

Dr. Soumillon co-founded Flexomics with Dr. Chevrier to meet the critical need for dedicated platforms bridging genomic and functional analysis. She is the inventor of the Single Cell RNA Barcoding and Sequencing method (SCRB-seq, Broad Institute) and OptoSeq™ (Berkeley Lights) technologies. She has 15 years’ experience developing Next Generation Sequencing assays including 10 years developing single cell genomics products involving micro and nanofluidic approaches and bioinformatics for both research and clinical applications.

Nicolas Chevrier

Co-Founder, Scientific Advisor 

Co-founder and Scientific Advisor to Flexomics, Dr. Chevrier is also Assistant Professor at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at University of Chicago. Dr. Chevrier is a leader in immunology and systemic immune response who has developed high-throughput solutions for the analysis of immune response at the organism level. Dr. Chevrier brings expertise in immunology, assay development, and systems biology. for both research and clinical applications.

Caroline Sartain

Director of Assay Development and Applications 

Dr. Sartain is leading the development of of imaging and NGS-based single-cell assays to enable a variety of applications on Flexomics’ platform. Her expertise is based on her work developing clinical diagnostic assays for reproductive medicine, liquid biopsy workflows for oncology, and engineering small molecule screening platforms for rare disease therapeutic discovery.
