About

Santiago Sevillano Matilla is a researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of microarray technology, particularly in the automation and design of these critical genomic tools. His key research areas include robotic microarray production and computational design for genomic experiments. Matilla’s major contributions are twofold: first, he pioneered methods for the robotic spotting of cDNA and oligonucleotide microarrays, a foundational paper that has garnered 81 citations for its impact on high-throughput genomic analysis. Second, he developed SimArray, a user-friendly and configurable microarray design tool that empowers researchers to optimize array layouts for diverse applications, from gene expression profiling to mapping protein-binding sites and assessing allelic variation. This work underscores his commitment to making sophisticated genomic technologies accessible and efficient. By addressing the key determinants of experimental success—production and design—Matilla has helped shape the practical implementation of microarray experiments, leaving a lasting mark on the field.
