Dr. Remington is director of the NIGMS Center for Bioinfomatics and Computational Biology, where she oversees research and training grants to support projects that integrate biology with computer sciences, engineering, mathematics, and physics.
Before joining NIH, Remington served as the project manager for the National Ecological Observatory Network, or NEON, Inc., an effort supported by the National Science Foundation to construct ecological data collection facilities across the contiguous United States, Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico. As vice president of bioinformatics research at The Venter Institute from 2002 to 2006, she led an NIH-supported large-scale genome sequencing production center and spearheaded a traveling laboratory-based educational program for public school students in Washington, D.C. At Celera Genomics from 1999 to 2002, Remington developed mathematical methods and computation leading to the completed sequences of the fruit fly, human, and mouse genomes
