Judith Anne Blake is a computational biologist at the Jackson Laboratory and Professor of Mammalian Genetics. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
Blake completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology in 1974 at the University of Connecticut. She moved to Harvard University for postgraduate study where she was awarded a Master of Arts degree in 1978 followed by a PhD in 1981. [6] Her PhD investigated chromosomal variation in the Jamaican lizard Anolis grahami and was supervised by Ernest Edward Williams. [4]
Blake's research interests are in genome evolution, biomedical ontologies and mouse genetics. [1] She is one of the leaders and founding principal investigators (PIs) of the Gene Ontology (GO) consortium [7] [8] [9] and the Mouse Genome Database (MGD). [10]
Blake was elected a Fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) in 2020 for outstanding contributions to computational biology. [11]
