About me

My name is Ryan Wick, and I made Bandage while doing a Master's in Bioinformatics at the University of Melbourne. I am originally from the US, where I did my undergraduate degree in Biology at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

I now continue to develop Bandage as a research assistant in Kathryn Holt's research group at the Bio21 institute in the University of Melbourne.
