Research Interests
Our research involves bioinformatics and computational biology with a particular focus on data analysis that spans a broad range of biomedical problems. We takes a broadly data science approach to research with objectives including description, hypothesis generation, hypothesis testing, prediction, and use machine learning, statistical and other methods.
Education
Ph.D., Harvard University, 1992. Molecular evolution, bioinformatics, computational biology.
