Research Interests:

Machine Learning, Bioinformatics, Data Mining, Complex Adaptive Systems.

My research interests lie in the area of Machine Learning algorithms for bioinformatics. My main research goal is a development of efficient machine learning algorithms for supervised learning of regulatory genetic networks from integrated heterogeneous data. I work for a Developmental Retina group which includes a close collaboration with the neurobiology lab of Dr. Heather Greenlee. I am currently working on the development of a flexible interactive database quering system that allows to easily design and re-use custom-built queries on genetic networks, and includes several methods for constructing networks from expression data.
