Pioneering computer biologist Jill Mesirov joins Sanford Burnham Prebys
Jill P. Mesirov, PhD, a pioneering mathematician and computational biologist whose work has dramatically broadened and deepened the use of advanced computing tools to develop and implement new cancer strategies and treatments, has joined Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute as a Distinguished Professor and Senior Vice President for Computational Science, beginning July 1, 2026.
"At this stage of my career, I'm reallyinterested in mentoring the next generation of computational biologists," said Mesirov. "Sanford Burnham Prebys has made major investments in resources and people to advance the use of information technologies in biomedical research. I can help further build that infrastructure and show what the new generative AI tools look like from a scientific point of view and how to most effectively use them. That includes helping young, outstanding computational scientists as they develop their careers."
Mesirov's duties at Sanford Burnham Prebys will include working with institute leadership to develop overall computational science strategies, coordinating projects among the institute's four disease-specific centers and two technology-enabling centers and advancing overall progress and implementation of computational sciences, including the rapid development and use of artificial intelligence.
"Dr. Mesirov's skills and achievements are long renowned," said David Brenner, MD, president and CEO of Sanford Burnham Prebys. "She has been a leading force in computational science and biology for years. She has helped transform it into the powerful force it has become, and she will help make it even more powerful, more beneficial in our search for new therapeutic discoveries.
"In that sense, Dr. Mesirov profoundly and indisputably matches our institutional mission to leverage the best tools and minds to translate science into health. No one embodies that goal more personally and professionally than Jill."
Prior to Sanford Burnham Prebys, Mesirov was associate vice chancellor for computational health sciences at UC San Diego and co-lead of the Structural and Functional Genomics Program at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center, which emphasizes the development and use of high throughput structural genomic data to guide basic cancer research and clinical applications.
Mesirov also serves on the pediatric neuro-oncology tumor board at Rady Children's Hospital, which matches children with brain and spinal cord tumors with the most effective, targeted, genome-based therapies.
Mesirov is a mathematician by training, with a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania and master's and doctoral degrees from Brandeis University in Massachusetts. After early exposure and experience in high-performance computing, she joined the Broad Institute of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard to study and advance the use of genomics data, which at the time was an emerging discipline, ultimately becoming associate director and chief informatics officer.
Indeed, Mesirov's work is widely regarded as groundbreaking, producing widely used open-access platforms such as GenePattern, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis with its Molecular Signature Database, and the Integrative Genomics Viewer, which allow researchers worldwide to analyze and visualize complex and massive genomic datasets without needing advanced programming skills. It is estimated that more than 1 million users in 100 countries employ her software in cancer research.
"Early on, I found the questions about cancer to be really interesting. How can we understand these diseases better? How can we get to the underlying mechanisms of different cancers to find better ways to treat them?
"And over the years, I've had many rewarding collaborations with cancer scientists and physicians, some still going on decades later. I've had experience with cancer in my own family. Cancer remains compelling."
Mesirov's specific research focuses on applying machine-learning methods to functional, molecular data derived from patient tumors to determine underlying biological mechanisms linked to specific tumor subtypes.
"The goal is to personalize treatment, to identify candidate compounds that promise the greatest therapeutic potential and recognize relative risks of relapse," said Mesirov. "Every cancer in every patient is different, and a big part of our mission is creating the practical, accessible software tools that allow scientists and physicians to create and deliver unique, effective therapies."
Previous to Broad, Mesirov served as manager of computational biology and bioinformatics in the Healthcare/Pharmaceutical Solutions Organization and as director of research at Thinking Machines Corporation. She also held positions in the mathematics department at UC Berkeley and at the Institute for Defense Analyses, where she conducted work in cryptology and speech and designed and implemented efficient computer algorithms.
Mesirov is former president of the Association for Women in Mathematics; served as associate executive director of the American Mathematical Society and is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Mathematical Society and the International Society for Computational Biology.
She has also served on several advisory boards and as an editor on journals in computational science and applied mathematics. She has authored or co-authored more than 300 journal articles and technical reports.

House of Lords Committee Challenges Government's Earned-Settlement Plans
The report does not prevent the UK government from proceeding, but adds pressure on ministers to revisit key aspects.
At a Glance
* The Committee concluded that longer settlement pathways are unlikely to encourage integration and will instead create prolonged periods of uncertainty for migrant families and workers.
* Thereport warns that retrospective changes could damage the United Kingdom's reputation as a destination for highly skilled migrants and, crucially, may be vulnerable to legal challenge.
* By prolonging reliance on employer-sponsored immigration status, the Committee warns that the proposals may increase vulnerability to labour exploitation and reduce workers' ability to challenge poor treatment or seek alternative employment opportunities.
-
On 23 June 2026, the House of Lords' Justice and Home Affairs Committee (the Committee) published its report titled "Settlement, Citizenship and Integration", which delivered a significant critique of the UK government's proposed "earned settlement" reforms. The report questions whether the proposed changes would achieve their stated objectives and warns that some elements may undermine integration rather than promote it.
Background
In November 2025, the government published "A Fairer Pathway to Settlement", a consultation proposing the most significant reforms to the UK's settlement framework in decades. The proposals would replace the current five-year route to Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) for most migrants with a new "earned settlement" model built around the principle that permanent residence should be earned through contribution and integration rather than acquired solely through the passage of time.
The consultation proposed a number of substantial changes, including:
* Increasing the baseline qualifying period for settlement from five years to ten years for most migrants
* Introducing mandatory requirements such as higher English language standards (B2 CEFR), passing the Life in the UK Test, maintaining lawful residence, having no qualifying criminality or government debt / not having accessed public funds, and meeting a minimum earnings requirement
* Allowing the qualifying period to be reduced for individuals who demonstrate exceptional economic or social contributions, including high earners, Global Talent migrants, Innovator Founders, certain public sector workers, and those who undertake significant volunteering activities
* Extending the qualifying period for certain groups, including individuals who have received public funds, entered the UK unlawfully, overstayed their permission, or initially entered as visitors
* Applying the new rules retrospectively to many individuals already residing in the UK who had not yet obtained settlement
* Making settlement subject to a No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) condition, preventing newly settled migrants from accessing certain welfare benefits and shifting entitlement to public funds from settlement to British citizenship
The government argued that these reforms were necessary in response to unprecedented migration levels between 2021 and 2024 and the substantial increase in settlement applications expected over the coming years as those individuals become eligible for settlement upon completion of five years of continuous residence in the UK and, once granted settlement, gain access to public funds (under the current rules). The Home Office also stated that the reforms would promote integration and ensure that settlement is reserved for those making a meaningful contribution to the UK.
Against this backdrop, the House of Lords' Justice and Home Affairs Committee launched an inquiry into settlement, citizenship, and integration. The committee's report delivers a detailed examination of the government's proposals and raises significant concerns regarding their fairness, practicality, and likely effectiveness.
Committee Opposes Extension to a 10-Year Route
A central conclusion of the report is that the government should reconsider extending the standard settlement qualifying period from five years to 10 years. The Committee concluded that longer settlement pathways are unlikely to encourage integration and will instead create prolonged periods of uncertainty for migrant families and workers.
Retrospective Application Deemed "Manifestly Unfair"
The report is critical of the proposal to apply the new rules to individuals who are already in the UK and on an existing pathway to settlement.
The Committee concluded that migrants who relocated to the UK did so based on the immigration rules in force at the time and may have made significant personal and financial decisions in reliance on those rules. Changing the conditions for settlement after those decisions have been made was described as "manifestly unfair". The report further warns that retrospective changes could damage the United Kingdom's reputation as a destination for highly skilled migrants and, crucially, may be vulnerable to legal challenge.
Concerns about Integration and Labour Exploitation
The Committee also challenged the underlying premise that settlement should be "earned" through a system of rewards and penalties.
The report questioned whether the proposed mechanisms would achieve that aim in practice. The Committee heard that the proposals could disproportionately benefit high-earners while disadvantaging lower-paid workers, carers, individuals with disabilities, and others whose circumstances may prevent them from satisfying earnings-based criteria.
The report further highlights concern regarding sponsored workers. By prolonging reliance on employer-sponsored immigration status, the Committee warns that the proposals may increase vulnerability to labour exploitation and reduce workers' ability to challenge poor treatment or seek alternative employment opportunities.
Impact on Children and Families
The Committee expressed concern that extending the settlement process could increase financial insecurity and poverty among migrant households. Particular concern was raised regarding children who may be affected by decisions made by parents or guardians. The report notes that the consequences of delayed settlement could have long-term effects on health, wellbeing, and opportunities for affected children.
The Committee also questioned whether the proposed earned settlement criteria adequately account for vulnerable groups and warned that some migrants may never realistically be able to satisfy the conditions necessary to settle.
Conclusion
The Justice and Home Affairs Committee's report does not prevent the government from proceeding with the earned-settlement reforms. However, it represents one of the strongest criticisms of the proposals to date and adds considerable pressure on ministers to revisit key aspects of the policy.
