Maysson Ibrahim

Maysson Ibrahim is a Senior Lecturer in Computing at the School of Computing, University of Buckingham, where she joined in 2020 as a part-time Lecturer in Computer Science while continuing her research role at the University of Oxford. She holds a PhD in Bioinformatics from the Buckingham Institute for Translational Medicine (2013) and a BEng in Software Engineering and Information Systems.

• PhD in Bioinformatics, University of Buckingham (2013)
• BEng in Software Engineering and Information Systems

Her research focuses on bioinformatics, genetic data analysis, and machine learning applications in big data. She has developed computational tools for pathway enrichment analysis and biomarkers identification using gene expression data. At Oxford, she leads bioinformatics work on large-scale biobanks (e.g., UK Biobank) and clinical trials like REVEAL, SHARP, and THRIVE to decode genetic determinants of complex diseases, particularly cardiovascular conditions.

Her recent publications emphasize pathway-based algorithms, disease classification, and the integration of gene network analysis with machine learning techniques. Despite no explicit scientific awards listed, her contributions span academic roles in teaching statistics and data science modules at Buckingham and leading analytical pipelines for major clinical studies.

She teaches modules such as Data Exploration and Visualisation and Systems and Tools for Data Science in the MSc Applied Data Science programme.
