Microbiome Core Manager at Microbiome Core at Weill Cornell Medicine
Jorge Gandara immigrated from Guatemala to New York in 1992 at the age of seven and exhibited a high proficiency in math and science throughout his childhood. This talent and interest eventually led Mr. Gandara to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology and graduate in 2009 from Stony Brook University, where he also began his scientific career as a lab technician. Over the years, Jorge has held key roles in laboratories at prestigious institutions like Mirimus Inc., The Rockefeller University, and Dr. Christopher Mason’s lab at Weill Cornell Medicine, where he contributed to the PathoMAP project (now MetaSUB), mapping the DNA of every NYC subway station. In July of 2018, the Microbiome Core at Weill Cornell Medicine was established. Jorge built the Core from the ground up with a focus on high-throughput DNA processing, namely 16S Sequencing and Shotgun Metagenomic Sequencing. Since the Core’s inception, Jorge has overseen the processing of nearly 17,000 samples from notable institutions across the United States and internationally and was appointed the Microbiome Core Manager in January 2024. His expertise in advanced sequencing techniques and the Microbiome Core’s white glove sample service make it one of the most successful and unique facilities in the field.
