Sofia Silverslott
A CRO Anal
Transitioning from a Bioinformatician into a CRO Analyst, I discovered that many of the skills I honed in bioinformatics seamlessly translated into the realm of digital marketing. Both disciplines require a strong foundation in data analysis and a keen eye for patterns. Whether I'm decoding the human genome or user behavior on a website, the core principles remain the same: gather data, analyze it meticulously, and derive actionable insights to drive meaningful outcomes.
My experience in bioinformatics has endowed me with a unique perspective on problem-solving. I approach CRO challenges with a scientific mindset. My analytical skills enable me to dissect user data with precision, while my background in Life Science fuels my commitment to evidence-based strategies. Moreover, my versatile role as a Bioinformatician and System Developer at NGI has equipped me with a valuable skill set. I am adept at web development and coding, UX, data analysis and visualization- all of which are needed in the realm of CRO. My technical proficiency, coupled with a deep understanding of user behavior, allows me to craft data-driven strategies that drive tangible results.

Work Experience
2024 -
CRO Analyst (Web Specialist)
LeoVegas (LeoVegas Group)
Currently in my role as a CRO Analyst at LeoVegas, I specialize in experimentation, A/B testing, and data-driven optimization across our web domains. My work focuses on driving measurable improvements in user experience and business outcomes through structured testing and analytics. Previously, I worked as an App Specialist, where I partnered with Analytics Engineering to ensure accurate tracking, designed and analyzed A/A and A/B tests, and monitored app-specific KPIs to support strategic decision-making. Beyond experimentation, I have contributed to building new business metrics, handled data requests from stakeholders in Jira, evaluated analytics tools (Exatom), and automated KPI monitoring with Slack bots for real-time insights.
2018 - 2024
Bioinformatician/System Developer
National Genomics Infrastructure (SciLifeLab, KI)
I delivered sequencing data to users from their sequencing projects and was method responsible for the data deliveries. I delivered mostly raw data (FastQ- or bcl-files), but also the BP analysis data of nf-core/RNASeq and nf-core/ MethylSeq, all of which I had run the analyses and performed quality checks prior to delivery, mainly from examining the correponding MultiQC report. I used BaseSpace Clarity LIMS to document my work and communicated with the users through ZenDesk. In addition, I also helped develop pipelines, external and internal web pages and interfaces using Python, JavaScript, PHP, HTML, and CSS using GitHub. I mostly worked with the internal website Genomics Status. I was responsible for the external website NGI Sweden and the pages on the SciLifeLab website. I did quite a bit of testing of the pipelines when these had been updated prior to production deployment and also wrote verifications and validations connected to those.
2017 - 2018
Laboratory Technician
Karolinska Institute (MTC), Centre for Translational Microbiome Research (CTMR)
I extracted microbe DNA from various samples from the research projects in Professor Lars Engstrand's research group using Tecan FreedomEVO. This was the first step in sequencing the DNA of the samples, which was carried out by my colleagues.
2015 - 2016
Laboratory Engineer
Octapharma Sweden, QC Support, Sample Reception
I received samples of pharmaceutical drugs in various phases of their production, imported these in SQL LIMS, and passed these on to the lab. I also handled the purchasing of supplies and equipment for the biochemistry lab, using SAP. In addition, I also delivered and received samples from other sites in Sweden as well as abroad.
2014 - 2015
Laboratory Engineer
Karolinska University Hospital in Solna, Department of Clinical Virology, Serology
I analysed blood plasma from patient samples for the detection of antibodies against various infections using ELISA, both automatically with the Tecan Freedom EVO robot and with manual analysis.
2014 - 2014
Laboratory Engineer
Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge, Department of Clinical Virology, Molecular Biology
I analysed various patient samples for the detection of viral infections using MagNA Pure and PCR.
