After working as an EMBO post doctoral fellow at the University of Helsinki, she joined CSC as a bioinformatics specialist in 2001. In her role as bioinformatics specialist Dr Korpelainen has provided nation-wide bioinformatics services including training, user support and software development. As an example of the latter, she has directed the development of [[http://chipster.csc.fi/|Chipster]]. Chipster enables biologists to access a comprehensive collection of up-to-date analysis tools, combine them to automatic, sharable workflows, and visualise results interactively. Chipster is open source and it is used in many institutes around the world for analysing and visualising next generation sequencing, microarray and proteomics data. In addition to her current position as Chipster product manager, Dr Korpelainen runs data analysis courses in Finland and abroad, and participates in international bioinformatics projects such as the COST Action [[http://www.seqahead.eu|SeqAhead]], a network for NGS data analysis, where she chairs the Software working group. | studied biochemistry at the University of Turku, Finland and received her PhD from University of Adelaide, Australia in 1996.
