As a professor of Computer Science at the University of Arizona, Dr. Myers developed or co-developed several state-of-the-art bioinformatics tools, including BLAST. He was among those who, in 1996, proposed the use of the "whole-genome shotgun" approach to sequencing the human genome and designed a whole shotgun assembler which was applied to the sequencing of the Drosophila genome.
